Let's divide 559255 by 2
We want to divide 559255 by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 can be fit into 5 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 4 from 5 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 2

On to step 2:
2 can be fit into 15 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtracting 14 from 15 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 2

Step 3:
19 divided by 2 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 279.0
If we take 18 away from 19, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 2

Going ahead to step 4:
2 goes into 12 6 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2796.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 12 from 12.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 2

Advancing to step 5:
2 goes into 5 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27962.0
If we take 4 away from 5, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 2

On to step 6:
The number 2 fits into 15 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279627.0
Subtracting 14 from 15 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 7:
10 divided by 2 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 279627.5
Deduct 10 from 10 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 279627.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 279627.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 279627.5 and a remainder of 0.0.
