299782 ÷ 59 
We want to figure out the number of times 299782 can be divided by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 29 / 59

Step 2:
The number 59 fits into 29 0 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 299 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
59 goes into 299 5 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 295 from 299 leaves us with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 59

On to step 4:
If we divide 47 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 478 / 59

On to step 5:
When dividing 478 by 59, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 508.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 472 from 478.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 62 / 59

Let's proceed to step 6:
62 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5081.0
Deduct 59 from 62 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 30 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5081.0
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
300 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5081.05
Subtracting 295 from 300 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5081.05
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 59 fits into 500 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5081.0508
If we take 472 away from 500, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5081.05084
If we take 236 away from 280, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 59 fits into 440 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5081.050847
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 413 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 270 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5081.0508474
If we subtract 236 from 270, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
59 can be fit into 340 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5081.05084745
Subtracting 295 from 340 leaves us 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.

The final result is 5081.05084745 with a remainder of 4.5e-08.
