We divide 747462 by 55
We want to divide 747462 by 55.

Step 1:
When dividing 7 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 74 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
55 goes into 74 1 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 55 away from 74, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 197 / 55

Step 3:
55 can be fit into 197 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 165 away from 197, we end up with 32.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 324 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
324 divided by 55 is 5 with a remainder of 49.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 135.0
Subtract 275 from 324 to get 49.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 496 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 496 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1359.0
Subtracting 495 from 496 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 55

On to step 6:
55 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13590.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 120 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13590.2
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 110 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13590.21
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 450 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13590.218
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 45.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13590.2181
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13590.21818
If we subtract 440 from 450, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 100 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 13590.218181
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13590.2181818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
100 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13590.21818181
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 13590.21818181, and the remainder is 4.5e-08.
