283887 ÷ 59 
We want to divide 283887 by 59.

Moving on to step 1:
59 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 59

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 28 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 283 / 59

On to step 3:
59 goes into 283 4 times with a remainder of 47.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 236 from 283.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 478 / 59

Step 4:
59 goes into 478 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 472 away from 478, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 59

Step 5:
The number 59 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 481.0
Subtract 59 from 68 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 59

Advancing to step 6:
The number 59 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4811.0
Subtracting 59 from 97 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 59 fits into 380 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4811.6
If we subtract 354 from 380, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4811.64
If we take 236 away from 260, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
59 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4811.644
Subtracting 236 from 240 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4811.644 with a balance of 0.0004.
