We divide 55858287 by 878
We're looking to find how many times 878 goes into 55858287.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 878

On to step 2:
55 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 558 / 878

On to step 3:
If we divide 558 by 878, we get 0 and a remainder of 558.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 558 to get 558.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 558 and repeat the process: 5585 / 878

Advancing to step 4:
878 goes into 5585 6 times with a remainder of 317.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 5268 from 5585 leaves us with 317.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 317, then carry on: 3178 / 878

On to step 5:
When dividing 3178 by 878, we get 3 with a remainder of 544.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 2634 from 3178, we get 544.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 544 and continue with: 5442 / 878

Going ahead to step 6:
5442 divided by 878 is 6 with a remainder of 174.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 636.0
If we subtract 5268 from 5442, we get 174.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 174 and repeat the process: 1748 / 878

Step 7:
878 goes into 1748 1 times with a remainder of 870.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6361.0
If we subtract 878 from 1748, we get 870.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 870 and continue with: 8707 / 878

On to step 8:
8707 divided by 878 is 9 with a remainder of 805.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 63619.0
If we subtract 7902 from 8707, we get 805.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8050, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 8050 by 878, we get 9 with a remainder of 148.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 63619.9
Subtracting 7902 from 8050 leaves us with 148.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 1480 by 878, we get 1 and a remainder of 602.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 63619.91
If we take 878 away from 1480, we end up with 602.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6020, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
6020 divided by 878 is 6 with a remainder of 752.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63619.916
Subtract 5268 from 6020 to get 752.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
7520 divided by 878 is 8 with a remainder of 496.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 63619.9168
Subtracting 7024 from 7520 leaves us with 496.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 878 fits into 4960 5 times, leaving a remainder of 570.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63619.91685
The remainder is 570 after subtracting 4390 from 4960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5700, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
878 can be fit into 5700 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 432.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 63619.916856
Subtract 5268 from 5700 to get 432.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4320, and continue the process.

Step 15:
878 goes into 4320 4 times with a remainder of 808.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 63619.9168564
Subtracting 3512 from 4320 leaves us with 808.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8080, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
The number 878 fits into 8080 9 times, leaving a remainder of 178.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63619.91685649
The remainder is 178 after subtracting 7902 from 8080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1780, and continue the process.

The final result is 63619.91685649 with a remainder of 1.78e-07.
