Let's divide 8751286 by 55
We want to figure out the number of times 8751286 can be divided by 55.

On to step 1:
55 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 55 from 87 and we're left with 32.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 325 / 55

Step 3:
If we divide 325 by 55, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 275 from 325 and we're left with 50.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 501 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
55 can be fit into 501 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 159.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 495 from 501.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 62 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1591.0
If we subtract 55 from 62, we get 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 55

Advancing to step 6:
78 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15911.0
Subtract 55 from 78 to get 23.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 236 / 55

Let's proceed to step 7:
55 goes into 236 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 159114.0
If we take 220 away from 236, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
55 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 159114.2
If we take 110 away from 160, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 159114.29
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 159114.29
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 159114.2909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159114.2909
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 159114.290909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 159114.290909
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 159114.29090909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 159114.29090909 with a remaining 5e-09.
