We divide 687236 by 55
We want to divide 687236 by 55.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
55 can be fit into 68 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 55 from 68 and we're left with 13.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 55

Step 3:
When dividing 137 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 110 from 137, we get 27.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 272 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 272 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 52.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 124.0
Deduct 220 from 272 and we're left with 52.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 523 / 55

Moving on to step 5:
55 goes into 523 9 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1249.0
If we subtract 495 from 523, we get 28.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 286 / 55

Step 6:
The number 55 fits into 286 5 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12495.0
Deduct 275 from 286 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
55 can be fit into 110 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12495.2
If we take 110 away from 110, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 12495.2
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 9:
55 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12495.2
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12495.2 with a remaining 0.0.
