Let's divide 877994 by 59
We want to divide 877994 by 59.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 59 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 59

Moving on to step 2:
The number 59 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 87 and we're left with 28.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 287 / 59

On to step 3:
59 goes into 287 4 times with a remainder of 51.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 236 from 287.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 519 / 59

Step 4:
When dividing 519 by 59, we get 8 with a remainder of 47.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 148.0
Deduct 472 from 519 and we're left with 47.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 479 / 59

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 59 fits into 479 8 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1488.0
If we subtract 472 from 479, we get 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 59

Advancing to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 74 1 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14881.0
If we take 59 away from 74, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 150 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14881.2
Subtract 118 from 150 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 59 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14881.25
If we subtract 295 from 320, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 250 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14881.254
Deduct 236 from 250 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 59 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14881.2542
Subtract 118 from 140 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
59 goes into 220 3 times with a remainder of 43.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14881.25423
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 177 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
59 goes into 430 7 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14881.254237
Subtracting 413 from 430 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 170 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14881.2542372
Subtract 118 from 170 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
520 divided by 59 is 8 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 14881.25423728
Deduct 472 from 520 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14881.25423728 with a balance of 4.8e-08.
