We're dividing 87254 by 59 
We want to divide 87254 by 59.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 59

On to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 59, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 59 from 87, we get 28.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 282 / 59

Advancing to step 3:
59 goes into 282 4 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 236 from 282, we get 46.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 465 / 59

Step 4:
If we divide 465 by 59, we get 7 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 147.0
If we take 413 away from 465, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 524 / 59

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 524 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 52.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1478.0
Subtract 472 from 524 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
59 goes into 520 8 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1478.8
If we subtract 472 from 520, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
480 divided by 59 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1478.88
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 472 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 1478.88 with a remainder of 0.008.
