888501 ÷ 55 
We want to figure out the number of times 888501 can be divided by 55.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 55 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 88 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 88 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 55 away from 88, we end up with 33.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 338 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 338 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 330 away from 338, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 85 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 161.0
Subtracting 55 from 85 leaves us with 30.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 300 / 55

Step 5:
55 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1615.0
Deduct 275 from 300 and we're left with 25.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 251 / 55

Advancing to step 6:
The number 55 fits into 251 4 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16154.0
Subtract 220 from 251 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
55 goes into 310 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16154.5
If we take 275 away from 310, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 8:
55 can be fit into 350 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16154.56
If we take 330 away from 350, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 200 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16154.563
If we subtract 165 from 200, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16154.5636
Subtract 330 from 350 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
200 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 35.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16154.56363
Subtracting 165 from 200 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16154.563636
If we subtract 330 from 350, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 200 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16154.5636363
Subtract 165 from 200 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 350 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16154.56363636
If we take 330 away from 350, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 16154.56363636 with a remaining 2e-08.
