We divide 287587 by 56
Our goal is to divide 287587 by 56.

Step 1:
56 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
56 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 287 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 287 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 7.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 280 from 287.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 75 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
75 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we subtract 56 from 75, we get 19.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 198 / 56

On to step 5:
When dividing 198 by 56, we get 3 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 513.0
Subtract 168 from 198 to get 30.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 307 / 56

On to step 6:
When dividing 307 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 27.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5135.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 280 from 307.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
56 goes into 270 4 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5135.4
Subtracting 224 from 270 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
56 can be fit into 460 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5135.48
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.

Advancing to step 9:
56 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5135.482
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5135.4821
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5135.48214
If we subtract 224 from 240, we 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5135.482142
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 13:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5135.4821428
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5135.48214285
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 final result is 5135.48214285 with a remainder of 4e-08.
