We divide 56083858 by 279
We want to divide 56083858 by 279.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 279, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 56 / 279

On to step 2:
279 goes into 56 0 times with a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 56 leaves us with 56.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 56, then repeat: 560 / 279

On to step 3:
560 divided by 279 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 558 from 560 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 28 / 279

On to step 4:
28 divided by 279 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 28, we get 28.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 283 / 279

On to step 5:
283 divided by 279 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 201.0
Subtracting 279 from 283 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 279

Step 6:
When dividing 48 by 279, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2010.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 485 / 279

Advancing to step 7:
485 divided by 279 is 1 with a remainder of 206.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20101.0
The remainder is 206 after subtracting 279 from 485.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 206, then repeat: 2068 / 279

Advancing to step 8:
279 can be fit into 2068 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 115.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 201017.0
If we take 1953 away from 2068, we end up with 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
279 can be fit into 1150 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 201017.4
Deduct 1116 from 1150 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 340 by 279, we get 1 with a remainder of 61.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 201017.41
Subtract 279 from 340 to get 61.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
279 can be fit into 610 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 201017.412
Subtract 558 from 610 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
279 goes into 520 1 times with a remainder of 241.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 201017.4121
If we take 279 away from 520, we end up with 241.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 2410 by 279, we get 8 with a remainder of 178.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 201017.41218
Subtract 2232 from 2410 to get 178.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
279 goes into 1780 6 times with a remainder of 106.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 201017.412186
If we take 1674 away from 1780, we end up with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 1060 by 279, we get 3 with a remainder of 223.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 201017.4121863
Subtract 837 from 1060 to get 223.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2230, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
279 goes into 2230 7 times with a remainder of 277.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 201017.41218637
Subtracting 1953 from 2230 leaves us with 277.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2770, and continue the process.

The final result is 201017.41218637 with a remainder of 2.77e-07.
