580981 ÷ 99 
Our goal is to divide 580981 by 99.

Let's proceed to step 1:
99 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 99

On to step 2:
The number 99 fits into 58 0 times, leaving a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 58 and we're left with 58.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 580 / 99

Step 3:
If we divide 580 by 99, we get 5 and a remainder of 85.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 495 from 580 leaves us with 85.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 85 and continue: 859 / 99

Step 4:
If we divide 859 by 99, we get 8 and a remainder of 67.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
The remainder is 67 after subtracting 792 from 859.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 67, then repeat: 678 / 99

On to step 5:
678 divided by 99 is 6 with a remainder of 84.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 586.0
Deduct 594 from 678 and we're left with 84.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 84, then carry on: 841 / 99

Let's proceed to step 6:
841 divided by 99 is 8 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5868.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 792 from 841.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 490 by 99, we get 4 and a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5868.4
Subtracting 396 from 490 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 99 fits into 940 9 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5868.49
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 891 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 99 fits into 490 4 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5868.494
Subtract 396 from 490 to get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 940 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5868.4949
If we subtract 891 from 940, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 99 fits into 490 4 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5868.49494
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 396 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
99 can be fit into 940 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5868.494949
If we subtract 891 from 940, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 490 by 99, we get 4 and a remainder of 94.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5868.4949494
If we subtract 396 from 490, we get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
99 can be fit into 940 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5868.49494949
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 891 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5868.49494949 with a remaining 4.9e-08.
