Let's divide 45978022 by 59
We want to figure out the number of times 45978022 can be divided by 59.

Step 1:
The number 59 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 45 / 59

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 59 fits into 45 0 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 45, we get 45.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 459 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 459 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 46.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we take 413 away from 459, we end up with 46.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 467 / 59

Let's proceed to step 4:
59 can be fit into 467 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 77.0
Deduct 413 from 467 and we're left with 54.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 548 / 59

Step 5:
When dividing 548 by 59, we get 9 with a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779.0
If we subtract 531 from 548, we get 17.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 170 / 59

Step 6:
If we divide 170 by 59, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7792.0
Subtracting 118 from 170 leaves us with 52.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 522 / 59

Going ahead to step 7:
59 can be fit into 522 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 77928.0
If we take 472 away from 522, we end up with 50.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 502 / 59

Step 8:
The number 59 fits into 502 8 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779288.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 472 from 502.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
59 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 779288.5
Deduct 295 from 300 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 50 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 779288.5
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up 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.

Step 11:
59 can be fit into 500 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 779288.508
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 472 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 12:
280 divided by 59 is 4 with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 779288.5084
Subtract 236 from 280 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
59 can be fit into 440 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 779288.50847
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.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 270 by 59, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 779288.508474
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.

Going ahead to step 15:
340 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 779288.5084745
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.

Going ahead to step 16:
59 can be fit into 450 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 779288.50847457
Subtracting 413 from 450 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 779288.50847457 with a remaining 3.7e-08.
