We're dividing 55603389 by 278 
We want to figure out the number of times 55603389 can be divided by 278.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 278 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 278

Moving on to step 2:
278 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 55 leaves us with 55.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 556 / 278

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 556 by 278, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 556 away from 556, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 0 / 278

Advancing to step 4:
278 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 278

Let's proceed to step 5:
278 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 200.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 278

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 33 by 278, we get 0 and a remainder of 33.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2000.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 338 / 278

Step 7:
The number 278 fits into 338 1 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20001.0
If we subtract 278 from 338, we get 60.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 60 and continue: 609 / 278

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 609 by 278, we get 2 and a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 200012.0
If we take 556 away from 609, we end up with 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 278 fits into 530 1 times, leaving a remainder of 252.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 200012.1
The remainder is 252 after subtracting 278 from 530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
2520 divided by 278 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 200012.19
Subtracting 2502 from 2520 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 278, we get 0 with a remainder of 180.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 200012.19
Subtracting 0 from 180 leaves us with 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 278 fits into 1800 6 times, leaving a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 200012.1906
The remainder is 132 after subtracting 1668 from 1800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 278 fits into 1320 4 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 200012.19064
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 1112 from 1320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 2080 by 278, we get 7 with a remainder of 134.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 200012.190647
Subtract 1946 from 2080 to get 134.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1340, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 1340 by 278, we get 4 with a remainder of 228.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 200012.1906474
Subtract 1112 from 1340 to get 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Step 16:
If we divide 2280 by 278, we get 8 and a remainder of 56.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 200012.19064748
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 2224 from 2280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Our division results in 200012.19064748 with a remaining 5.6e-08.
