We divide 477118 by 56
We want to divide 477118 by 56.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
56 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 477 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
477 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 448 from 477, we get 29.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 291 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
56 goes into 291 5 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we subtract 280 from 291, we get 11.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 111 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 111 1 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 851.0
Subtract 56 from 111 to get 55.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 558 / 56

Step 6:
558 divided by 56 is 9 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8519.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 504 from 558.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 540 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 36.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8519.9
Deduct 504 from 540 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 56 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8519.96
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8519.964
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8519.9642
If we subtract 112 from 160, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8519.96428
Subtract 448 from 480 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8519.964285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 8519.9642857
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8519.96428571
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8519.96428571 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
