1. The problem is to find the quotient of 59 divided by 2. 2. The formula for division is $$\text{Quotient} = \frac{\text{Dividend}}{\text{Divisor}}$$ where the dividend is 59 and the divisor is 2. 3. Calculate $$\frac{59}{2}$$. 4. Since 59 and 2 have no common factors other than 1, the fraction cannot be simplified further. 5. Perform the division: $$59 \div 2 = 29.5$$. 6. Therefore, the quotient of 59 divided by 2 is 29.5.
