138436 ÷ 56 
We want to figure out the number of times 138436 can be divided by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 13 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 13 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 13.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 13, we end up with 13.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 138 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 138 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 112 from 138.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 264 / 56

Step 4:
264 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 224 away from 264, we end up with 40.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 403 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 403 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 247.0
Deduct 392 from 403 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 116 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
116 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2472.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 112 from 116.
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 7:
56 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2472.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2472.07
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2472.071
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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2472.0714
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.

Moving on to step 11:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2472.07142
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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2472.071428
Subtract 448 from 480 to 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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2472.0714285
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.

Step 14:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2472.07142857
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.

The final result is 2472.07142857 with a remainder of 8e-09.
