Let's divide 587986 by 33
Our goal is to divide 587986 by 33.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 33, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 33

Moving on to step 2:
33 goes into 58 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 33 from 58 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 33

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 33 fits into 257 7 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 231 from 257 to get 26.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 269 / 33

Step 4:
33 goes into 269 8 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 178.0
If we subtract 264 from 269, we get 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 33

Let's proceed to step 5:
33 can be fit into 58 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1781.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 33 from 58.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 256 / 33

On to step 6:
If we divide 256 by 33, we get 7 and a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17817.0
Deduct 231 from 256 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
33 goes into 250 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17817.7
If we take 231 away from 250, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
33 can be fit into 190 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17817.75
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 165 from 190.
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:
If we divide 250 by 33, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17817.757
Subtracting 231 from 250 leaves us with 19.
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 10:
If we divide 190 by 33, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17817.7575
Subtracting 165 from 190 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
33 goes into 250 7 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17817.75757
Subtract 231 from 250 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 33 fits into 190 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17817.757575
If we take 165 away from 190, we end up with 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 13:
If we divide 250 by 33, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17817.7575757
If we take 231 away from 250, we end up with 19.
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 14:
33 can be fit into 190 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17817.75757575
If we subtract 165 from 190, 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.

After the division, we end up with 17817.75757575 and a remainder of 2.5e-08.
