Let's divide 685874 by 55
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 685874.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 68 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 55 from 68 and we're left with 13.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 135 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 135 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 110 from 135 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 258 / 55

Step 4:
The number 55 fits into 258 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtract 220 from 258 to get 38.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 387 / 55

Moving on to step 5:
55 goes into 387 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1247.0
Subtracting 385 from 387 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
24 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12470.0
Subtract 0 from 24 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 20.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12470.4
Subtracting 220 from 240 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
55 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12470.43
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12470.436
Deduct 330 from 350 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
200 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12470.4363
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12470.43636
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 55 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12470.436363
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 165 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 13:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12470.4363636
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
200 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12470.43636363
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.

After the division, we end up with 12470.43636363 and a remainder of 3.5e-08.
