552983 ÷ 870 
We want to figure out the number of times 552983 can be divided by 870.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 870, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 870

Moving on to step 2:
870 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 55 leaves us with 55.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 552 / 870

Let's proceed to step 3:
870 can be fit into 552 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 552.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 552 after subtracting 0 from 552.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 552 and continue: 5529 / 870

Step 4:
If we divide 5529 by 870, we get 6 and a remainder of 309.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 309 after subtracting 5220 from 5529.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 309 and repeat the process: 3098 / 870

Going ahead to step 5:
3098 divided by 870 is 3 with a remainder of 488.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 2610 from 3098, we get 488.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 488, then repeat: 4883 / 870

Moving on to step 6:
870 can be fit into 4883 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 533.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 635.0
Deduct 4350 from 4883 and we're left with 533.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5330, and continue the process.

Step 7:
870 goes into 5330 6 times with a remainder of 110.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 635.6
The remainder is 110 after subtracting 5220 from 5330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 1100 by 870, we get 1 and a remainder of 230.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 635.61
If we subtract 870 from 1100, we get 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 2300 by 870, we get 2 with a remainder of 560.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 635.612
Subtracting 1740 from 2300 leaves us with 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 5600 by 870, we get 6 with a remainder of 380.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 635.6126
The remainder is 380 after subtracting 5220 from 5600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3800, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
870 goes into 3800 4 times with a remainder of 320.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 635.61264
Subtract 3480 from 3800 to get 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
870 goes into 3200 3 times with a remainder of 590.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 635.612643
The remainder is 590 after subtracting 2610 from 3200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5900, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 870 fits into 5900 6 times, leaving a remainder of 680.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 635.6126436
Subtracting 5220 from 5900 leaves us with 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
870 can be fit into 6800 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 710.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 635.61264367
The remainder is 710 after subtracting 6090 from 6800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7100, and continue the process.

The final result is 635.61264367 with a remainder of 7.1e-07.
