We divide 262882 by 56
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 262882.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
56 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 262 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 262 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 224 from 262.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 388 / 56

Step 4:
The number 56 fits into 388 6 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 336 from 388.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 52, then repeat: 528 / 56

On to step 5:
56 can be fit into 528 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 469.0
If we take 504 away from 528, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 242 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
56 can be fit into 242 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4694.0
Deduct 224 from 242 and we're left with 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 7:
If we divide 180 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 12.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4694.3
Deduct 168 from 180 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4694.32
Subtracting 112 from 120 leaves us 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.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4694.321
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4694.3214
Subtract 224 from 240 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4694.32142
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4694.321428
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.

Going ahead to step 13:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4694.3214285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 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 14:
The number 56 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4694.32142857
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.

Our division results in 4694.32142857 with a remaining 8e-09.
