Let's divide 978018 by 59
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 978018.

Step 1:
59 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 59

Let's proceed to step 2:
97 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 97 and we're left with 38.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 388 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
388 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtracting 354 from 388 leaves us with 34.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 340 / 59

Step 4:
59 can be fit into 340 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 165.0
Subtracting 295 from 340 leaves us with 45.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 451 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 451 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1657.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 413 from 451.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 388 / 59

On to step 6:
59 goes into 388 6 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16576.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 354 from 388.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 7:
59 goes into 340 5 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16576.5
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 295 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
59 can be fit into 450 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16576.57
Deduct 413 from 450 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 370 by 59, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16576.576
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 354 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16576.5762
Deduct 118 from 160 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 420 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16576.57627
Deduct 413 from 420 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16576.576271
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 59 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 59, we get 1 and a remainder of 51.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16576.5762711
If we subtract 59 from 110, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Our division results in 16576.5762711 with a remaining 5.1e-07.
