Answer:

  about 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers round to 600/30 = 20, which is a reasonable estimate.

You can refine this by doing the next step of long division:

  29×20 = 580

Subtracting this from 591.3 give 11.3, so the fraction is ...

  11.3/29 ≈ 10/30 = 1/3

A better estimate is 20 1/3.

_____

A calculator tells you the quotient is about 20.3897.
