Let's divide 212151 by 56
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 212151.

On to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 56

On to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 212 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 212 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 168 from 212 leaves us with 44.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 441 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
56 goes into 441 7 times with a remainder of 49.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 37.0
Subtracting 392 from 441 leaves us with 49.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 495 / 56

On to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 495 8 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 378.0
If we take 448 away from 495, we end up with 47.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 471 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 471 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 23.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3788.0
Subtracting 448 from 471 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
56 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3788.4
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 224 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.41
If we subtract 56 from 60, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
56 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3788.41
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3788.4107
Subtract 392 from 400 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3788.41071
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.

On to step 12:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3788.410714
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3788.4107142
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.

Step 14:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3788.41071428
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3788.41071428, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
