We divide 162970 by 55
We want to divide 162970 by 55.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 16, we end up with 16.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 162 / 55

On to step 3:
When dividing 162 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 110 away from 162, we end up with 52.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 529 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 529 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 495 from 529.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 347 / 55

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 347 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 17.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 296.0
If we subtract 330 from 347, we get 17.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 170 / 55

Step 6:
When dividing 170 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2963.0
If we take 165 away from 170, we end up 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 7:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2963.0
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.

Moving on to step 8:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2963.09
If we subtract 495 from 500, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2963.09
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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2963.0909
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.

Advancing to step 11:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2963.0909
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.

Moving on to step 12:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2963.090909
If we subtract 495 from 500, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2963.090909
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.

Step 14:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2963.09090909
If we subtract 495 from 500, we 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.

The final outcome is 2963.09090909, with a leftover of 5e-09.
