We look at the division of 55871897 by 848 
We want to divide 55871897 by 848.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 848 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 848

Step 2:
The number 848 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 558 / 848

Moving on to step 3:
848 goes into 558 0 times with a remainder of 558.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 558 to get 558.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 558, then carry on: 5587 / 848

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 5587 by 848, we get 6 and a remainder of 499.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 5088 away from 5587, we end up with 499.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 499 and continue with: 4991 / 848

Step 5:
When dividing 4991 by 848, we get 5 with a remainder of 751.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 65.0
If we subtract 4240 from 4991, we get 751.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 751 and repeat the process: 7518 / 848

Step 6:
7518 divided by 848 is 8 with a remainder of 734.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 658.0
If we take 6784 away from 7518, we end up with 734.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 734, then repeat: 7349 / 848

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 848 fits into 7349 8 times, leaving a remainder of 565.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6588.0
Subtracting 6784 from 7349 leaves us with 565.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 565, then carry on: 5657 / 848

Advancing to step 8:
848 goes into 5657 6 times with a remainder of 569.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 65886.0
Subtract 5088 from 5657 to get 569.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5690, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 5690 by 848, we get 6 and a remainder of 602.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 65886.6
Subtract 5088 from 5690 to get 602.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6020, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 6020 by 848, we get 7 and a remainder of 84.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 65886.67
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 5936 from 6020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 840 by 848, we get 0 with a remainder of 840.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 65886.67
If we subtract 0 from 840, we get 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
848 can be fit into 8400 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 768.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 65886.6709
Deduct 7632 from 8400 and we're left with 768.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7680, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
848 goes into 7680 9 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 65886.67099
If we subtract 7632 from 7680, we 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.

The final result is 65886.67099 with a remainder of 4.8e-05.
