876847 divided by 55 
We want to divide 876847 by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 55

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 55 from 87, we get 32.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 326 / 55

Step 3:
55 goes into 326 5 times with a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 275 from 326.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 518 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
518 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 23.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159.0
Deduct 495 from 518 and we're left with 23.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 234 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
55 can be fit into 234 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1594.0
Subtract 220 from 234 to get 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 147 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 37.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15942.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 110 from 147.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
370 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15942.6
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 330 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15942.67
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 150 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15942.672
Subtracting 110 from 150 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 10:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15942.6727
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15942.67272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
When dividing 400 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15942.672727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15942.6727272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15942.67272727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final result is 15942.67272727 with a remainder of 1.5e-08.
