We divide 548722 by 99
We want to figure out the number of times 548722 can be divided by 99.

Going ahead to step 1:
99 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 99

Going ahead to step 2:
54 divided by 99 is 0 with a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 548 / 99

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 548 by 99, we get 5 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 495 from 548 to get 53.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 537 / 99

On to step 4:
99 can be fit into 537 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 495 from 537.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 422 / 99

Advancing to step 5:
99 can be fit into 422 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 554.0
Subtract 396 from 422 to get 26.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 262 / 99

On to step 6:
99 can be fit into 262 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5542.0
If we subtract 198 from 262, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 640 by 99, we get 6 with a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5542.6
Subtract 594 from 640 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 460 by 99, we get 4 and a remainder of 64.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5542.64
Deduct 396 from 460 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 640 by 99, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5542.646
Subtracting 594 from 640 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 99 fits into 460 4 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5542.6464
If we take 396 away from 460, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 640 by 99, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5542.64646
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 594 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
99 goes into 460 4 times with a remainder of 64.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5542.646464
If we take 396 away from 460, we end up with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 640 by 99, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5542.6464646
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 594 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
460 divided by 99 is 4 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5542.64646464
If we subtract 396 from 460, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5542.64646464 with a remaining 6.4e-08.
