We divide 871282 by 59
Our goal is to divide 871282 by 59.

Let's proceed to step 1:
59 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 59

Let's proceed to step 2:
87 divided by 59 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 59 from 87 leaves us with 28.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 281 / 59

Step 3:
When dividing 281 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 236 from 281.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 452 / 59

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 452 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 147.0
Deduct 413 from 452 and we're left with 39.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 398 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
398 divided by 59 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1476.0
Subtracting 354 from 398 leaves us with 44.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 442 / 59

Step 6:
If we divide 442 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 29.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14767.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 413 from 442.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 290 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14767.4
If we take 236 away from 290, we end up with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
59 can be fit into 540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14767.49
Subtract 531 from 540 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
59 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14767.491
If we take 59 away from 90, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
59 goes into 310 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14767.4915
If we subtract 295 from 310, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
150 divided by 59 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14767.49152
If we take 118 away from 150, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 59, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14767.491525
If we subtract 295 from 320, 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.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14767.4915254
If we take 236 away from 250, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 59 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14767.49152542
Subtracting 118 from 140 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14767.49152542 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
