We look at the division of 996017 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 996017 by 55.

Step 1:
9 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
99 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 44.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 55 away from 99, we end up with 44.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 446 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 446 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 440 from 446 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 60 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
55 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 181.0
If we take 55 away from 60, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 51 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1810.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 0 from 51.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 517 / 55

Advancing to step 6:
55 can be fit into 517 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18109.0
Subtract 495 from 517 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18109.4
If we subtract 220 from 220, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18109.4
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
0 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18109.4
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 18109.4, with a leftover of 0.0.
