Let's divide 478182 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 478182.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 56

On to step 2:
47 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 478 / 56

On to step 3:
If we divide 478 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 30.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 448 from 478.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 301 / 56

On to step 4:
301 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 85.0
Deduct 280 from 301 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 218 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 218 by 56, we get 3 with a remainder of 50.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 853.0
If we take 168 away from 218, we end up with 50.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 502 / 56

Step 6:
If we divide 502 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8538.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 448 from 502.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 540 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8538.9
Subtract 504 from 540 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8538.96
Subtract 336 from 360 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8538.964
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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8538.9642
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8538.96428
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8538.964285
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.

Moving on to step 13:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8538.9642857
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8538.96428571
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 8538.96428571 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
