Let's divide 559601 by 12
We're looking to find how many times 12 goes into 559601.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 12 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 12

Going ahead to step 2:
12 goes into 55 4 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 48 from 55 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 79 / 12

Advancing to step 3:
12 goes into 79 6 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46.0
Subtracting 72 from 79 leaves us with 7.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 76 / 12

On to step 4:
12 can be fit into 76 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 466.0
Deduct 72 from 76 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 40 / 12

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 40 by 12, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4663.0
Subtract 36 from 40 to get 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 12

Going ahead to step 6:
41 divided by 12 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46633.0
Subtract 36 from 41 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
12 can be fit into 50 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46633.4
Subtracting 48 from 50 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 12 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 46633.41
If we take 12 away from 20, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 12, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46633.416
Subtracting 72 from 80 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 12, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46633.4166
If we subtract 72 from 80, we 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.

The final outcome is 46633.4166, with a leftover of 8e-05.
