486661 ÷ 56 
Our goal is to divide 486661 by 56.

On to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 486 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 486 8 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 448 from 486 and we're left with 38.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 386 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 can be fit into 386 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
If we subtract 336 from 386, we get 50.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 506 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
56 can be fit into 506 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 869.0
If we subtract 504 from 506, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 21 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
21 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8690.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
56 goes into 210 3 times with a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8690.3
If we take 168 away from 210, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 56 fits into 420 7 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8690.37
If we take 392 away from 420, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 280 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8690.375
If we subtract 280 from 280, we 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.

On to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8690.375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
56 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8690.375
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 8690.375, and the remainder is 0.0.
