We divide 540408 by 56
Our goal is to divide 540408 by 56.

Step 1:
The number 56 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 54 / 56

On to step 2:
If we divide 54 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 54 and we're left with 54.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 54, then repeat: 540 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 540 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we subtract 504 from 540, we get 36.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 364 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 can be fit into 364 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 336 from 364.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 280 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
280 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 965.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 280 from 280.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 8 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
8 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9650.0
If we take 0 away from 8, 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 7:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9650.1
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 9650.14
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.

Advancing to step 9:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9650.142
Subtract 112 from 160 to 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
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: 9650.1428
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up 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 11:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9650.14285
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
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: 9650.142857
If we subtract 392 from 400, we get 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 13:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9650.1428571
Subtract 56 from 80 to 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 14:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9650.14285714
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 9650.14285714, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
