We divide 254417 by 55
We want to divide 254417 by 55.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
55 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 254 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
254 divided by 55 is 4 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 220 from 254.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 344 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 55 fits into 344 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
Subtract 330 from 344 to get 14.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 141 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
55 goes into 141 2 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 462.0
If we take 110 away from 141, we end up with 31.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 317 / 55

Step 6:
When dividing 317 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4625.0
If we subtract 275 from 317, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 420 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 35.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4625.7
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 385 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4625.76
Subtract 330 from 350 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4625.763
If we subtract 165 from 200, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 55 fits into 350 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4625.7636
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
55 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4625.76363
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 350 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4625.763636
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4625.7636363
If we take 165 away from 200, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
55 can be fit into 350 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4625.76363636
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4625.76363636 and a remainder of 2e-08.
