231438 ÷ 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 231438.

Step 1:
55 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
23 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 231 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 55 fits into 231 4 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 220 from 231, we get 11.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 114 / 55

On to step 4:
If we divide 114 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42.0
If we take 110 away from 114, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 43 / 55

On to step 5:
If we divide 43 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 43.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 420.0
If we take 0 away from 43, we end up with 43.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 43 and continue with: 438 / 55

On to step 6:
438 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4207.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 385 from 438.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 530 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4207.9
Subtracting 495 from 530 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 350 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4207.96
Deduct 330 from 350 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4207.963
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 350 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4207.9636
If we subtract 330 from 350, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
55 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4207.96363
If we subtract 165 from 200, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4207.963636
Deduct 330 from 350 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4207.9636363
If we subtract 165 from 200, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 350 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4207.96363636
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4207.96363636, and the remainder is 2e-08.
