We're dividing 55901520 by 875 
We want to divide 55901520 by 875.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 875, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 875

Step 2:
875 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 55 leaves us with 55.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 559 / 875

Moving on to step 3:
875 goes into 559 0 times with a remainder of 559.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 559 to get 559.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 559 and repeat the process: 5590 / 875

Let's proceed to step 4:
5590 divided by 875 is 6 with a remainder of 340.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 5250 from 5590 leaves us with 340.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 340 and continue: 3401 / 875

Let's proceed to step 5:
3401 divided by 875 is 3 with a remainder of 776.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63.0
The remainder is 776 after subtracting 2625 from 3401.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 776, then carry on: 7765 / 875

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 7765 by 875, we get 8 and a remainder of 765.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 638.0
If we take 7000 away from 7765, we end up with 765.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 765, then carry on: 7652 / 875

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 7652 by 875, we get 8 and a remainder of 652.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6388.0
Subtracting 7000 from 7652 leaves us with 652.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 652, then repeat: 6520 / 875

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 6520 by 875, we get 7 and a remainder of 395.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63887.0
The remainder is 395 after subtracting 6125 from 6520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3950, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 875 fits into 3950 4 times, leaving a remainder of 450.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63887.4
The remainder is 450 after subtracting 3500 from 3950.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
4500 divided by 875 is 5 with a remainder of 125.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63887.45
If we take 4375 away from 4500, we end up with 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 875 fits into 1250 1 times, leaving a remainder of 375.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63887.451
If we take 875 away from 1250, we end up with 375.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
875 can be fit into 3750 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 250.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63887.4514
The remainder is 250 after subtracting 3500 from 3750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
875 can be fit into 2500 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 750.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63887.45142
Deduct 1750 from 2500 and we're left with 750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7500, and continue the process.

Step 14:
7500 divided by 875 is 8 with a remainder of 500.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63887.451428
If we take 7000 away from 7500, we end up with 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
875 goes into 5000 5 times with a remainder of 625.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63887.4514285
Subtract 4375 from 5000 to get 625.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
6250 divided by 875 is 7 with a remainder of 125.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63887.45142857
If we subtract 6125 from 6250, we get 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1250, and continue the process.

Our division results in 63887.45142857 with a remaining 1.25e-07.
