We're dividing 973727 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 973727 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 56 from 97 leaves us with 41.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 413 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
413 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 21.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 392 from 413 and we're left with 21.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 217 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 217 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 49.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 168 from 217 and we're left with 49.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 492 / 56

Step 5:
56 can be fit into 492 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1738.0
Subtracting 448 from 492 leaves us with 44.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 447 / 56

On to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 447 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17387.0
Subtracting 392 from 447 leaves us with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
550 divided by 56 is 9 with a remainder of 46.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17387.9
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 504 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17387.98
If we subtract 448 from 460, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17387.982
Subtract 112 from 120 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17387.9821
Subtract 56 from 80 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17387.98214
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17387.982142
If we subtract 112 from 160, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 17387.9821428
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 14:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17387.98214285
Subtracting 280 from 320 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 17387.98214285 and a remainder of 4e-08.
