Let's divide 143877 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 143877.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
14 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 143 / 56

Step 3:
56 goes into 143 2 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 112 from 143, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 318 / 56

Step 4:
56 can be fit into 318 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we take 280 away from 318, we end up with 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 387 6 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 256.0
If we take 336 away from 387, we end up with 51.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 517 / 56

Step 6:
56 goes into 517 9 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2569.0
Subtracting 504 from 517 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
56 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2569.2
If we subtract 112 from 130, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 56 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2569.23
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 168 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2569.232
If we subtract 112 from 120, we 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2569.2321
Deduct 56 from 80 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.

Advancing to step 11:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2569.23214
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2569.232142
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2569.2321428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2569.23214285
Subtracting 280 from 320 leaves us 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.

The final result is 2569.23214285 with a remainder of 4e-08.
