We divide 1218358 by 959
We're looking to find how many times 959 goes into 1218358.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 959, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 959

Moving on to step 2:
The number 959 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 121 / 959

Advancing to step 3:
121 divided by 959 is 0 with a remainder of 121.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 121, we end up with 121.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 121, then carry on: 1218 / 959

Step 4:
If we divide 1218 by 959, we get 1 and a remainder of 259.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 259 after subtracting 959 from 1218.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 259, then repeat: 2593 / 959

On to step 5:
959 goes into 2593 2 times with a remainder of 675.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 1918 from 2593 leaves us with 675.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 675, then repeat: 6755 / 959

Let's proceed to step 6:
6755 divided by 959 is 7 with a remainder of 42.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 127.0
If we subtract 6713 from 6755, we get 42.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 428 / 959

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 428 by 959, we get 0 with a remainder of 428.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1270.0
If we take 0 away from 428, we end up with 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
959 goes into 4280 4 times with a remainder of 444.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1270.4
Subtracting 3836 from 4280 leaves us with 444.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
959 goes into 4440 4 times with a remainder of 604.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1270.44
Subtracting 3836 from 4440 leaves us with 604.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6040, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1270.44 with a remaining 0.604.
