We're dividing 55537015 by 431 
Our goal is to divide 55537015 by 431.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 431 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 431

Step 2:
431 can be fit into 55 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 55.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 55 leaves us with 55.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 55, then carry on: 555 / 431

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 431 fits into 555 1 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 431 from 555 leaves us with 124.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 124 and continue: 1243 / 431

Step 4:
When dividing 1243 by 431, we get 2 with a remainder of 381.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 862 from 1243 leaves us with 381.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 381, then repeat: 3817 / 431

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 431 fits into 3817 8 times, leaving a remainder of 369.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 128.0
Subtract 3448 from 3817 to get 369.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 369 and continue: 3690 / 431

Moving on to step 6:
3690 divided by 431 is 8 with a remainder of 242.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1288.0
Subtract 3448 from 3690 to get 242.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 242 and continue with: 2421 / 431

Step 7:
When dividing 2421 by 431, we get 5 with a remainder of 266.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12885.0
Deduct 2155 from 2421 and we're left with 266.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 266 and continue: 2665 / 431

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 2665 by 431, we get 6 with a remainder of 79.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 128856.0
If we take 2586 away from 2665, we end up with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
431 goes into 790 1 times with a remainder of 359.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128856.1
Subtracting 431 from 790 leaves us with 359.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3590, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 431 fits into 3590 8 times, leaving a remainder of 142.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 128856.18
The remainder is 142 after subtracting 3448 from 3590.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
431 can be fit into 1420 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 127.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128856.183
If we subtract 1293 from 1420, we get 127.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
1270 divided by 431 is 2 with a remainder of 408.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 128856.1832
If we subtract 862 from 1270, we get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 4080 by 431, we get 9 and a remainder of 201.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128856.18329
The remainder is 201 after subtracting 3879 from 4080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2010, and continue the process.

Step 14:
431 goes into 2010 4 times with a remainder of 286.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 128856.183294
Subtract 1724 from 2010 to get 286.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2860, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 431 fits into 2860 6 times, leaving a remainder of 274.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 128856.1832946
If we take 2586 away from 2860, we end up with 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
2740 divided by 431 is 6 with a remainder of 154.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 128856.18329466
Subtract 2586 from 2740 to get 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 128856.18329466, and the remainder is 1.54e-07.
