221461 ÷ 56 
Our goal is to divide 221461 by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 56

On to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 221 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
221 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 53.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 168 from 221.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 534 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 534 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 30.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we subtract 504 from 534, we get 30.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 306 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
56 can be fit into 306 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 395.0
If we take 280 away from 306, we end up with 26.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 261 / 56

On to step 6:
If we divide 261 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 37.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3954.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 224 from 261.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
56 goes into 370 6 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3954.6
If we take 336 away from 370, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3954.66
Deduct 336 from 340 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3954.66 with a balance of 0.004.
