We're dividing 162578 by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 162578.

Going ahead to step 1:
56 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 16 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 0 from 16.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 162 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
162 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 50.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 112 from 162.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 505 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
56 goes into 505 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we take 504 away from 505, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
17 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 290.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
56 can be fit into 178 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2903.0
If we take 168 away from 178, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
56 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2903.1
If we take 56 away from 100, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 440 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 48.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2903.17
Subtracting 392 from 440 leaves us 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 9:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2903.178
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.

Step 10:
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: 2903.1785
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 11:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2903.17857
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 12:
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: 2903.178571
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 13:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2903.1785714
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left 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 14:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2903.17857142
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2903.17857142 with a balance of 4.8e-08.
