Let's divide 479973 by 59
We want to divide 479973 by 59.

Step 1:
The number 59 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
59 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 479 / 59

Let's proceed to step 3:
59 goes into 479 8 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 472 from 479 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 79 / 59

Step 4:
The number 59 fits into 79 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 81.0
If we take 59 away from 79, we end up with 20.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 207 / 59

On to step 5:
59 goes into 207 3 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 813.0
Subtracting 177 from 207 leaves us with 30.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 303 / 59

Step 6:
When dividing 303 by 59, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8135.0
Subtract 295 from 303 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
59 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8135.1
If we subtract 59 from 80, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
210 divided by 59 is 3 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8135.13
Subtracting 177 from 210 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
330 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8135.135
If we take 295 away from 330, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
350 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8135.1355
If we subtract 295 from 350, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8135.1355 with a balance of 0.00055.
