We're dividing 142211 by 56 
We want to divide 142211 by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
56 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 56

On to step 2:
56 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 142 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
56 can be fit into 142 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 112 from 142.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 302 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
56 can be fit into 302 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 280 from 302 and we're left with 22.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 221 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 221 by 56, we get 3 with a remainder of 53.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 253.0
If we subtract 168 from 221, we get 53.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 531 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
56 can be fit into 531 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2539.0
If we take 504 away from 531, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
56 can be fit into 270 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2539.4
If we subtract 224 from 270, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 goes into 460 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2539.48
Subtract 448 from 460 to 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2539.482
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 112 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2539.4821
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.

Moving on to step 11:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2539.48214
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2539.482142
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up with 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:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2539.4821428
Deduct 448 from 480 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2539.48214285
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.

The quotient of the division is 2539.48214285, and the remainder is 4e-08.
