56788878 ÷ 56 
Our goal is to divide 56788878 by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
56 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
56 can be fit into 56 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 56 from 56 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 7 / 56

Step 3:
When dividing 7 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 can be fit into 78 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 101.0
If we take 56 away from 78, we end up with 22.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 228 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 228 4 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1014.0
Subtract 224 from 228 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
56 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10140.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 56

Going ahead to step 7:
56 goes into 487 8 times with a remainder of 39.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 101408.0
If we subtract 448 from 487, we get 39.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 398 / 56

Advancing to step 8:
56 goes into 398 7 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1014087.0
If we subtract 392 from 398, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 60 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1014087.1
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
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 10:
56 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1014087.1
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 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 11:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1014087.107
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
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 12:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1014087.1071
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1014087.10714
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1014087.107142
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.

Moving on to step 15:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1014087.1071428
Subtract 448 from 480 to 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.

Step 16:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1014087.10714285
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.

Our division results in 1014087.10714285 with a remaining 4e-08.
