12494005 ÷ 597 
Let's see how many times 597 fits into 12494005.

On to step 1:
The number 597 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 597

On to step 2:
597 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 124 / 597

Step 3:
The number 597 fits into 124 0 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 124 and we're left with 124.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 124 and repeat the process: 1249 / 597

Advancing to step 4:
The number 597 fits into 1249 2 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 1194 away from 1249, we end up with 55.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 554 / 597

On to step 5:
597 goes into 554 0 times with a remainder of 554.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 554, we end up with 554.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 554, then repeat: 5540 / 597

On to step 6:
The number 597 fits into 5540 9 times, leaving a remainder of 167.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 209.0
Subtract 5373 from 5540 to get 167.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 167 and continue: 1670 / 597

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 1670 by 597, we get 2 and a remainder of 476.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2092.0
Subtracting 1194 from 1670 leaves us with 476.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 476, then carry on: 4765 / 597

Advancing to step 8:
4765 divided by 597 is 7 with a remainder of 586.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20927.0
The remainder is 586 after subtracting 4179 from 4765.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 5860 by 597, we get 9 and a remainder of 487.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20927.9
Subtract 5373 from 5860 to get 487.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4870, and continue the process.

Step 10:
597 goes into 4870 8 times with a remainder of 94.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20927.98
Deduct 4776 from 4870 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
597 goes into 940 1 times with a remainder of 343.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20927.981
The remainder is 343 after subtracting 597 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
3430 divided by 597 is 5 with a remainder of 445.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20927.9815
Subtracting 2985 from 3430 leaves us with 445.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 597 fits into 4450 7 times, leaving a remainder of 271.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20927.98157
Subtracting 4179 from 4450 leaves us with 271.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
597 goes into 2710 4 times with a remainder of 322.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20927.981574
If we take 2388 away from 2710, we end up with 322.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3220, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
3220 divided by 597 is 5 with a remainder of 235.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20927.9815745
If we subtract 2985 from 3220, we get 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 2350 by 597, we get 3 with a remainder of 559.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20927.98157453
The remainder is 559 after subtracting 1791 from 2350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5590, and continue the process.

Our division results in 20927.98157453 with a remaining 5.59e-07.
