We divide 12216 by 55
We want to figure out the number of times 12216 can be divided by 55.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
55 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 12, we end up with 12.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
122 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 110 away from 122, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 121 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
55 goes into 121 2 times with a remainder of 11.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 110 away from 121, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 116 / 55

Moving on to step 5:
116 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 222.0
Deduct 110 from 116 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 55 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222.1
If we subtract 55 from 60, 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 222.1
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 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 8:
The number 55 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 222.109
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 222.109
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 10:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222.10909
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 11:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 222.10909
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 12:
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: 222.1090909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 222.1090909
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 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 222.1090909, and the remainder is 5e-08.
