Let's divide 165696 by 56
We want to figure out the number of times 165696 can be divided by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
16 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 165 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
165 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 53.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 112 from 165 leaves us with 53.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 536 / 56

On to step 4:
When dividing 536 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 504 from 536 and we're left with 32.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 329 / 56

On to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 329 5 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 295.0
Subtract 280 from 329 to get 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
56 can be fit into 496 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2958.0
If we subtract 448 from 496, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2958.8
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2958.85
Subtracting 280 from 320 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2958.857
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.

Step 10:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2958.8571
If we subtract 56 from 80, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2958.85714
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 12:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2958.857142
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2958.8571428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we get 32.
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 14:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2958.85714285
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.

The quotient of the division is 2958.85714285, and the remainder is 4e-08.
