Let's divide 21706979 by 556
We're looking to find how many times 556 goes into 21706979.

On to step 1:
556 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 556

On to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 556, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 217 / 556

Going ahead to step 3:
217 divided by 556 is 0 with a remainder of 217.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 217 after subtracting 0 from 217.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 217, then repeat: 2170 / 556

Moving on to step 4:
556 goes into 2170 3 times with a remainder of 502.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 1668 from 2170 leaves us with 502.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 502 and continue with: 5026 / 556

Step 5:
5026 divided by 556 is 9 with a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we subtract 5004 from 5026, we get 22.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 229 / 556

Going ahead to step 6:
556 goes into 229 0 times with a remainder of 229.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 390.0
If we take 0 away from 229, we end up with 229.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 229 and repeat the process: 2297 / 556

Let's proceed to step 7:
2297 divided by 556 is 4 with a remainder of 73.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3904.0
Subtracting 2224 from 2297 leaves us with 73.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 73 and continue with: 739 / 556

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 739 by 556, we get 1 and a remainder of 183.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39041.0
Subtracting 556 from 739 leaves us with 183.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1830, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 556 fits into 1830 3 times, leaving a remainder of 162.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 39041.3
Subtracting 1668 from 1830 leaves us with 162.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 556 fits into 1620 2 times, leaving a remainder of 508.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 39041.32
Subtract 1112 from 1620 to get 508.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5080, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 5080 by 556, we get 9 with a remainder of 76.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39041.329
If we take 5004 away from 5080, we end up with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
556 goes into 760 1 times with a remainder of 204.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39041.3291
If we take 556 away from 760, we end up with 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
556 can be fit into 2040 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 372.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 39041.32913
If we subtract 1668 from 2040, we get 372.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
556 can be fit into 3720 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 384.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 39041.329136
Subtract 3336 from 3720 to get 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 556 fits into 3840 6 times, leaving a remainder of 504.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 39041.3291366
Subtracting 3336 from 3840 leaves us with 504.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5040, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 39041.3291366, and the remainder is 5.04e-06.
