We look at the division of 13855 by 55 
We want to figure out the number of times 13855 can be divided by 55.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 13 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 13 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 13.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 13 leaves us with 13.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 138 / 55

Advancing to step 3:
55 can be fit into 138 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 110 from 138 to get 28.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 285 / 55

On to step 4:
55 can be fit into 285 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 275 from 285.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 105 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
55 can be fit into 105 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 251.0
Deduct 55 from 105 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 251.9
Subtracting 495 from 500 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 251.9
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 8:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 251.909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 251.909
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 251.90909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 11:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 251.90909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 251.9090909
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 251.9090909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 251.9090909, with a leftover of 5e-08.
