We look at the division of 98231 by 56 
We want to divide 98231 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 98 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 56 from 98.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 422 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
422 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 30.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 392 from 422.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 303 / 56

On to step 4:
303 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 23.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 175.0
Subtracting 280 from 303 leaves us with 23.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 231 / 56

Step 5:
When dividing 231 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 7.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1754.0
Deduct 224 from 231 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 6:
The number 56 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1754.1
Deduct 56 from 70 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 140 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1754.12
If we subtract 112 from 140, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
280 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1754.125
Subtract 280 from 280 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
0 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1754.125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1754.125
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1754.125 and a remainder of 0.0.
