Let's divide 497959 by 1
Let's see how many times 1 fits into 497959.

Step 1:
4 divided by 1 is 4 with a remainder of 0.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 1

Let's proceed to step 2:
1 goes into 9 9 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we subtract 9 from 9, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 1

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 1 fits into 7 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 497.0
If we subtract 7 from 7, we get 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 1

Moving on to step 4:
9 divided by 1 is 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4979.0
Deduct 9 from 9 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 5 / 1

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 1 fits into 5 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49795.0
If we take 5 away from 5, we end up with 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 1

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 9 by 1, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497959.0
If we take 9 away from 9, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
1 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497959.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 1, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 497959.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 497959.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
