We look at the division of 529987 by 59 
We want to figure out the number of times 529987 can be divided by 59.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 59

Moving on to step 2:
59 can be fit into 52 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 52 and repeat the process: 529 / 59

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 529 by 59, we get 8 with a remainder of 57.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 472 from 529, we get 57.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 57, then repeat: 579 / 59

Let's proceed to step 4:
59 goes into 579 9 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 89.0
Deduct 531 from 579 and we're left with 48.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 488 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
59 can be fit into 488 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 898.0
Deduct 472 from 488 and we're left with 16.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 167 / 59

Going ahead to step 6:
59 goes into 167 2 times with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8982.0
Subtract 118 from 167 to 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
59 can be fit into 490 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8982.8
Deduct 472 from 490 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
59 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8982.83
Subtracting 177 from 180 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
59 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8982.83
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
59 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8982.8305
If we subtract 295 from 300, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
59 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8982.8305
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 59 fits into 500 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8982.830508
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 280 by 59, we get 4 and a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8982.8305084
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 236 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 440 by 59, we get 7 with a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8982.83050847
Subtracting 413 from 440 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8982.83050847 with a remaining 2.7e-08.
