We divide 62717 by 55
We want to divide 62717 by 55.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 62 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 62 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 55 from 62 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 55

On to step 3:
When dividing 77 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 55 from 77 and we're left with 22.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 221 / 55

Step 4:
When dividing 221 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 220 from 221.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 17 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1140.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
170 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1140.3
Deduct 165 from 170 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1140.3
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1140.309
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1140.309
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 10:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1140.30909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1140.30909
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1140.3090909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 13:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1140.3090909
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The final result is 1140.3090909 with a remainder of 5e-08.
