We're dividing 261223 by 55 
We want to divide 261223 by 55.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 26 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
55 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 261 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
55 goes into 261 4 times with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 220 from 261, we get 41.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 412 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
412 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we subtract 385 from 412, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 272 / 55

Moving on to step 5:
55 can be fit into 272 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 474.0
Deduct 220 from 272 and we're left with 52.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 523 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
55 goes into 523 9 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4749.0
If we take 495 away from 523, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
55 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4749.5
If we take 275 away from 280, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4749.5
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4749.509
Subtracting 495 from 500 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4749.509
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4749.50909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4749.50909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4749.5090909
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 50 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4749.5090909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4749.5090909, and the remainder is 5e-08.
