We're dividing 216131 by 56 
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 216131.

Advancing to step 1:
56 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 21, we end up with 21.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 216 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
216 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 168 from 216 and we're left with 48.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 481 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
481 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 33.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 448 from 481, we get 33.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 333 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 333 5 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 385.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 280 from 333.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 53, then repeat: 531 / 56

Step 6:
531 divided by 56 is 9 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3859.0
Subtracting 504 from 531 leaves us 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.

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: 3859.4
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 224 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
56 goes into 460 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3859.48
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 448 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed 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: 3859.482
Subtract 112 from 120 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3859.4821
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:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3859.48214
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.

Step 12:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3859.482142
If we subtract 112 from 160, we 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.

Moving on to step 13:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3859.4821428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us 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.

On to step 14:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3859.48214285
If we take 280 away from 320, we end up 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3859.48214285 with a balance of 4e-08.
