We divide 968539 by 55
Our goal is to divide 968539 by 55.

On to step 1:
55 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 96 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
55 can be fit into 96 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 55 from 96, we get 41.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 418 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
55 goes into 418 7 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 385 away from 418, we end up with 33.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 335 / 55

On to step 4:
The number 55 fits into 335 6 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 176.0
If we take 330 away from 335, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 53 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1760.0
Deduct 0 from 53 and we're left with 53.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 539 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
539 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 44.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17609.0
Deduct 495 from 539 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 55 fits into 440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17609.8
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 440 from 440.
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:
The number 55 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17609.8
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 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 9:
55 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17609.8
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.

The quotient of the division is 17609.8, and the remainder is 0.0.
