We divide 15755442 by 279
Our goal is to divide 15755442 by 279.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 279 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 15 / 279

Step 2:
When dividing 15 by 279, we get 0 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 157 / 279

On to step 3:
When dividing 157 by 279, we get 0 with a remainder of 157.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 157 leaves us with 157.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 157, then carry on: 1575 / 279

Advancing to step 4:
The number 279 fits into 1575 5 times, leaving a remainder of 180.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 1395 from 1575 leaves us with 180.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 180, then carry on: 1805 / 279

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 1805 by 279, we get 6 with a remainder of 131.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we take 1674 away from 1805, we end up with 131.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 131 and repeat the process: 1314 / 279

Advancing to step 6:
279 goes into 1314 4 times with a remainder of 198.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 564.0
Subtract 1116 from 1314 to get 198.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 198, then repeat: 1984 / 279

Going ahead to step 7:
279 can be fit into 1984 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5647.0
If we subtract 1953 from 1984, we get 31.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 312 / 279

Going ahead to step 8:
279 goes into 312 1 times with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56471.0
Deduct 279 from 312 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
279 goes into 330 1 times with a remainder of 51.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56471.1
Subtract 279 from 330 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
510 divided by 279 is 1 with a remainder of 231.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56471.11
Subtract 279 from 510 to get 231.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2310, and continue the process.

The final result is 56471.11 with a remainder of 0.231.
