Let's divide 860731 by 56
We want to figure out the number of times 860731 can be divided by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 86 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 56 from 86 and we're left with 30.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 300 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
56 can be fit into 300 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 280 from 300.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 207 / 56

On to step 4:
If we divide 207 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 153.0
If we take 168 away from 207, we end up with 39.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 393 / 56

Step 5:
393 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1537.0
Subtract 392 from 393 to get 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15370.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15370.1
Subtracting 56 from 110 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 540 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15370.19
Subtracting 504 from 540 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15370.196
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15370.1964
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15370.19642
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15370.196428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15370.1964285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15370.19642857
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 15370.19642857 and a remainder of 8e-09.
