720827 ÷ 56 
Our goal is to divide 720827 by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 56

On to step 2:
56 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 56 from 72.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 160 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
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: 12.0
If we subtract 112 from 160, we get 48.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 488 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 goes into 488 8 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128.0
Deduct 448 from 488 and we're left with 40.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 402 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 402 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1287.0
If we subtract 392 from 402, we get 10.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 107 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 107 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12871.0
Subtracting 56 from 107 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 56 fits into 510 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12871.9
Subtracting 504 from 510 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
60 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12871.91
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
56 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12871.91
Subtracting 0 from 40 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.

Advancing to step 10:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12871.9107
Subtracting 392 from 400 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 11:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12871.91071
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 12:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12871.910714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12871.9107142
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12871.91071428
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.

After the division, we end up with 12871.91071428 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
