655897 ÷ 56 
Our goal is to divide 655897 by 56.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 65 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 65 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 56 from 65, we get 9.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 95 / 56

On to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 95 1 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 56 away from 95, we end up with 39.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 398 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
56 can be fit into 398 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 117.0
Subtract 392 from 398 to get 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
56 goes into 69 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1171.0
Subtract 56 from 69 to get 13.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 137 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 137 2 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11712.0
Deduct 112 from 137 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
56 goes into 250 4 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11712.4
Subtracting 224 from 250 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
56 can be fit into 260 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11712.44
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 224 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

The final result is 11712.44 with a remainder of 0.036.
