Let's divide 20599 by 71
Let's see how many times 71 fits into 20599.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 71, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 71

Step 2:
The number 71 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 205 / 71

On to step 3:
The number 71 fits into 205 2 times, leaving a remainder of 63.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 142 from 205.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 63 and repeat the process: 639 / 71

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 639 by 71, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtracting 639 from 639 leaves us with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 71

Going ahead to step 5:
71 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 290.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
90 divided by 71 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 290.1
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 71 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 71, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 290.12
Subtract 142 from 190 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 8:
71 goes into 480 6 times with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 290.126
Subtracting 426 from 480 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 540 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 290.1267
If we take 497 away from 540, we end up with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 430 by 71, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 290.12676
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 426 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 71 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 290.12676
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 71, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 290.1267605
Deduct 355 from 400 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
71 can be fit into 450 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 290.12676056
If we subtract 426 from 450, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 290.12676056 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
