We divide 125494 by 56
Our goal is to divide 125494 by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
56 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 125 / 56

Step 3:
The number 56 fits into 125 2 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 112 from 125.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 134 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
134 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 112 from 134.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 229 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
229 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 224.0
If we subtract 224 from 229, we get 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
56 goes into 54 0 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2240.0
Subtract 0 from 54 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
56 goes into 540 9 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2240.9
Subtracting 504 from 540 leaves us 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 8:
360 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2240.96
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2240.964
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.

Step 10:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2240.9642
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:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2240.96428
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2240.964285
Deduct 280 from 320 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2240.9642857
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.

Step 14:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2240.96428571
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2240.96428571 with a balance of 2.4e-08.
