Let's divide 585479 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 585479.

Step 1:
56 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 58 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 56 from 58, we get 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 56

Step 3:
If we divide 25 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 254 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 254 4 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 104.0
If we subtract 224 from 254, we get 30.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 307 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 can be fit into 307 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1045.0
Subtracting 280 from 307 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
56 goes into 279 4 times with a remainder of 55.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10454.0
Deduct 224 from 279 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
56 goes into 550 9 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10454.9
Deduct 504 from 550 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
460 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10454.98
If we subtract 448 from 460, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10454.982
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left 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:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10454.9821
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.

On to step 11:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10454.98214
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10454.982142
If we subtract 112 from 160, 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10454.9821428
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10454.98214285
If we take 280 away from 320, we end up 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 final outcome is 10454.98214285, with a leftover of 4e-08.
