Going ahead to step 2:
659 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 231 / 659

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 231 by 659, we get 0 with a remainder of 231.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 231 to get 231.

On to step 4:
2317 divided by 659 is 3 with a remainder of 340.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 1977 from 2317 to get 340.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 340, then repeat: 3408 / 659

Step 5:
3408 divided by 659 is 5 with a remainder of 113.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtract 3295 from 3408 to get 113.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 113 and continue: 1137 / 659

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 1137 by 659, we get 1 with a remainder of 478.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 351.0
The remainder is 478 after subtracting 659 from 1137.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 478 and repeat the process: 4784 / 659

Moving on to step 7:
The number 659 fits into 4784 7 times, leaving a remainder of 171.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3517.0
The remainder is 171 after subtracting 4613 from 4784.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 171 and continue with: 1719 / 659

Advancing to step 8:
1719 divided by 659 is 2 with a remainder of 401.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35172.0
Subtract 1318 from 1719 to get 401.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4010, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 4010 by 659, we get 6 with a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35172.6
Subtract 3954 from 4010 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 560 by 659, we get 0 with a remainder of 560.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 35172.6
Subtract 0 from 560 to get 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 5600 by 659, we get 8 with a remainder of 328.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 35172.608
Subtract 5272 from 5600 to get 328.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
3280 divided by 659 is 4 with a remainder of 644.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 35172.6084
Subtract 2636 from 3280 to get 644.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6440, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 6440 by 659, we get 9 and a remainder of 509.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35172.60849
Subtract 5931 from 6440 to get 509.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5090, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 5090 by 659, we get 7 with a remainder of 477.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 35172.608497
If we subtract 4613 from 5090, we get 477.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4770, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 4770 by 659, we get 7 and a remainder of 157.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35172.6084977
Subtracting 4613 from 4770 leaves us with 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1570, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 35172.6084977, with a leftover of 1.57e-06.
