Let's divide 124283 by 55
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 124283.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 55

On to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 124 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
The number 55 fits into 124 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 110 from 124, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 142 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
55 goes into 142 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 110 away from 142, we end up with 32.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 328 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 328 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 53.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 225.0
Subtracting 275 from 328 leaves us with 53.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 533 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 533 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2259.0
If we subtract 495 from 533, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 7:
380 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2259.6
Deduct 330 from 380 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2259.69
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2259.69
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2259.6909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 11:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2259.6909
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2259.690909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2259.690909
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 500 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2259.69090909
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

The final result is 2259.69090909 with a remainder of 5e-09.
