We're dividing 445997 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 445997 by 56.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 56

On to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 44 0 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 44 and we're left with 44.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 445 / 56

Step 3:
56 can be fit into 445 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 53.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 392 from 445 and we're left with 53.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 539 / 56

On to step 4:
56 goes into 539 9 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 79.0
Subtract 504 from 539 to get 35.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 359 / 56

Step 5:
The number 56 fits into 359 6 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 796.0
If we take 336 away from 359, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 237 / 56

Step 6:
When dividing 237 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7964.0
Subtracting 224 from 237 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 130 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7964.2
If we take 112 away from 130, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
56 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7964.23
Deduct 168 from 180 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
56 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7964.232
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.

Step 10:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7964.2321
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7964.23214
Subtract 224 from 240 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7964.232142
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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7964.2321428
Subtract 448 from 480 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7964.23214285
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.

Our division results in 7964.23214285 with a remaining 4e-08.
