We divide 678729 by 56
Our goal is to divide 678729 by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
6 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 0 from 6.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 67 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
67 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 56 away from 67, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 118 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 118 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 112 from 118, we get 6.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 67 / 56

On to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 67 1 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 121.0
Subtract 56 from 67 to get 11.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 112 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 can be fit into 112 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1212.0
Deduct 112 from 112 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 9 / 56

On to step 6:
56 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12120.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
90 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12120.1
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 56 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 340 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12120.16
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
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 9:
When dividing 40 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 12120.16
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

On to step 10:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12120.1607
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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12120.16071
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 12120.160714
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12120.1607142
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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12120.16071428
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.

The final outcome is 12120.16071428, with a leftover of 3.2e-08.
