Let's divide 724954 by 59
We're looking to find how many times 59 goes into 724954.

Let's proceed to step 1:
59 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 59

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 59 from 72 and we're left with 13.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 134 / 59

On to step 3:
When dividing 134 by 59, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 118 from 134.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 169 / 59

Advancing to step 4:
169 divided by 59 is 2 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 122.0
If we take 118 away from 169, we end up with 51.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 515 / 59

On to step 5:
59 can be fit into 515 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1228.0
If we take 472 away from 515, we end up with 43.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 434 / 59

Advancing to step 6:
59 goes into 434 7 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12287.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 413 from 434.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 210 by 59, we get 3 and a remainder of 33.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12287.3
If we take 177 away from 210, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
330 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12287.35
If we take 295 away from 330, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
350 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12287.355
If we subtract 295 from 350, we get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12287.355, and the remainder is 0.0055.
