Let's divide 338642 by 55
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 338642.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 33 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 33 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 0 from 33.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 338 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
55 goes into 338 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 330 from 338, we get 8.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 86 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 86 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 61.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 55 from 86.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 314 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
The number 55 fits into 314 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 615.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 275 from 314.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 392 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 392 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6157.0
If we subtract 385 from 392, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 70 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6157.1
Subtract 55 from 70 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 8:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6157.12
If we subtract 110 from 150, 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 9:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6157.127
If we subtract 385 from 400, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 150 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6157.1272
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 110 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6157.12727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6157.127272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6157.1272727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6157.12727272
Deduct 110 from 150 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 6157.12727272 and a remainder of 4e-08.
