We divide 41980 by 56
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 41980.

Step 1:
56 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 41, we get 41.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 419 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
419 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 392 from 419 leaves us with 27.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 278 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
278 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 54.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
If we subtract 224 from 278, we get 54.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 540 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
56 goes into 540 9 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 749.0
If we take 504 away from 540, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 360 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 749.6
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 749.64
Subtract 224 from 240 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 749.642
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 9:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 749.6428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we 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.

Step 10:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 749.64285
Subtract 280 from 320 to 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 749.642857
Deduct 392 from 400 and we're left 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 12:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 749.6428571
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 749.64285714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 749.64285714, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
