We're dividing 24100 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 24100 by 55.

Step 1:
55 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 55

On to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 241 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
55 goes into 241 4 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 220 from 241 to get 21.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 210 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
55 can be fit into 210 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 43.0
Subtract 165 from 210 to get 45.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 450 / 55

On to step 5:
55 goes into 450 8 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 438.0
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
55 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 438.1
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 438.18
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
55 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 438.181
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 438.1818
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
100 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 438.18181
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 438.181818
If we subtract 440 from 450, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 55 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 438.1818181
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 438.18181818
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 438.18181818 with a remainder of 1e-08.
