317780 ÷ 56 
We want to divide 317780 by 56.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 56

On to step 2:
56 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 317 / 56

On to step 3:
56 goes into 317 5 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 280 from 317 to get 37.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 377 / 56

Step 4:
When dividing 377 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 41.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
Deduct 336 from 377 and we're left with 41.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 41 and continue with: 418 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
56 can be fit into 418 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 567.0
Subtracting 392 from 418 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 260 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 260 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5674.0
Subtracting 224 from 260 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 56 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5674.6
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5674.64
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5674.642
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 10:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5674.6428
Deduct 448 from 480 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5674.64285
Deduct 280 from 320 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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5674.642857
If we subtract 392 from 400, we 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5674.6428571
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5674.64285714
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 5674.64285714 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
