9 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
56 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 56 from 98.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 427 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 427 7 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 392 from 427.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 358 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 358 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtract 336 from 358 to get 22.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 227 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
56 can be fit into 227 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1764.0
If we subtract 224 from 227, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 37 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17640.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
370 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17640.6
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 336 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 56 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17640.66
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17640.66 with a balance of 0.004.
