We divide 987905 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 987905.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
56 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 56 away from 98, we end up with 42.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 56

Step 3:
If we divide 427 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 392 from 427, we get 35.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 359 / 56

On to step 4:
56 goes into 359 6 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtracting 336 from 359 leaves us with 23.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 230 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
230 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1764.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 224 from 230.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 65 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
65 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17641.0
Subtract 56 from 65 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17641.1
Deduct 56 from 90 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
56 can be fit into 340 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17641.16
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17641.16
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17641.1607
Subtract 392 from 400 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.

On to step 11:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17641.16071
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 12:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17641.160714
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17641.1607142
Subtract 112 from 160 to 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 14:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17641.16071428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 17641.16071428 with a balance of 3.2e-08.
