We divide 17986495 by 56
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 17986495.

Moving on to step 1:
56 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
17 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 56

On to step 3:
56 goes into 179 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 168 away from 179, we end up with 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 118 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we subtract 112 from 118, we get 6.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 66 / 56

On to step 5:
If we divide 66 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 321.0
If we take 56 away from 66, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 104 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
56 goes into 104 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3211.0
If we subtract 56 from 104, we get 48.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 489 / 56

On to step 7:
56 goes into 489 8 times with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 32118.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 448 from 489.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 415 / 56

Step 8:
415 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 321187.0
If we take 392 away from 415, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
230 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 321187.4
Deduct 224 from 230 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 321187.41
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 321187.41
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 12:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 321187.4107
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.

Moving on to step 13:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 321187.41071
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 321187.410714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 321187.4107142
Subtract 112 from 160 to 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 16:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 321187.41071428
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 321187.41071428, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
