Let's divide 596481 by 44
Our goal is to divide 596481 by 44.

Advancing to step 1:
44 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 59 / 44

On to step 2:
44 goes into 59 1 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 44 from 59 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 156 / 44

Let's proceed to step 3:
44 goes into 156 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 132 from 156 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 244 / 44

Step 4:
When dividing 244 by 44, we get 5 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 135.0
If we subtract 220 from 244, we get 24.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 248 / 44

Let's proceed to step 5:
248 divided by 44 is 5 with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1355.0
Subtract 220 from 248 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 281 / 44

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 281 by 44, we get 6 and a remainder of 17.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13556.0
If we subtract 264 from 281, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 170 by 44, we get 3 with a remainder of 38.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13556.3
Subtracting 132 from 170 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 44 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13556.38
Subtract 352 from 380 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 44 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13556.386
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
44 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13556.3863
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 132 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
280 divided by 44 is 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13556.38636
If we subtract 264 from 280, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
44 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13556.386363
Subtracting 132 from 160 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 280 by 44, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 13556.3863636
Subtracting 264 from 280 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 44 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13556.38636363
If we take 132 away from 160, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 13556.38636363 with a remainder of 2.8e-08.
