Let's divide 56821 by 99
We want to divide 56821 by 99.

Let's proceed 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
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 56 / 99

Step 2:
99 can be fit into 56 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 56.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 56 leaves us with 56.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 56, then repeat: 568 / 99

Advancing to step 3:
The number 99 fits into 568 5 times, leaving a remainder of 73.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 495 from 568 leaves us with 73.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 732 / 99

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 732 by 99, we get 7 with a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 693 from 732 to get 39.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 391 / 99

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 99 fits into 391 3 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 573.0
Subtract 297 from 391 to get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
If we divide 940 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 573.9
Subtract 891 from 940 to get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 99 fits into 490 4 times, leaving a remainder of 94.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 573.94
If we subtract 396 from 490, we get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 940 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.949
If we take 891 away from 940, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
99 goes into 490 4 times with a remainder of 94.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 573.9494
The remainder is 94 after subtracting 396 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
940 divided by 99 is 9 with a remainder of 49.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 573.94949
Deduct 891 from 940 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 490 by 99, we get 4 and a remainder of 94.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 573.949494
Subtract 396 from 490 to get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 940 by 99, we get 9 and a remainder of 49.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 573.9494949
Deduct 891 from 940 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 13:
99 goes into 490 4 times with a remainder of 94.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 573.94949494
Subtracting 396 from 490 leaves us with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 573.94949494, and the remainder is 9.4e-08.
