Let's divide 404997 by 55
We're looking to find how many times 55 goes into 404997.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
55 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 404 / 55

On to step 3:
404 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 385 from 404, we get 19.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 199 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 199 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 73.0
If we take 165 away from 199, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 349 / 55

On to step 5:
When dividing 349 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 19.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 736.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 330 from 349.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 197 / 55

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 197 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 32.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7363.0
If we subtract 165 from 197, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 320 by 55, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7363.5
If we take 275 away from 320, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7363.58
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
55 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7363.581
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
450 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7363.5818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
100 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7363.58181
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7363.581818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7363.5818181
Subtract 55 from 100 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7363.58181818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7363.58181818 and a remainder of 1e-08.
