We look at the division of 55407317 by 551 
Our goal is to divide 55407317 by 551.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 551 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 551

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 55 by 551, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 55 to get 55.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 554 / 551

Step 3:
551 can be fit into 554 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 551 from 554, we get 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 551

Let's proceed to step 4:
551 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 307 / 551

Step 5:
When dividing 307 by 551, we get 0 with a remainder of 307.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 100.0
Subtracting 0 from 307 leaves us with 307.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 307, then repeat: 3073 / 551

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 551 fits into 3073 5 times, leaving a remainder of 318.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1005.0
The remainder is 318 after subtracting 2755 from 3073.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 318 and repeat the process: 3181 / 551

On to step 7:
When dividing 3181 by 551, we get 5 with a remainder of 426.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10055.0
Subtracting 2755 from 3181 leaves us with 426.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 426 and continue with: 4267 / 551

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 4267 by 551, we get 7 with a remainder of 410.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 100557.0
If we take 3857 away from 4267, we end up with 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
4100 divided by 551 is 7 with a remainder of 243.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 100557.7
Subtract 3857 from 4100 to get 243.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2430, and continue the process.

Step 10:
2430 divided by 551 is 4 with a remainder of 226.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 100557.74
The remainder is 226 after subtracting 2204 from 2430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2260 divided by 551 is 4 with a remainder of 56.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 100557.744
If we take 2204 away from 2260, we end up with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 100557.744 and a remainder of 0.0056.
