We divide 461243 by 56
We want to figure out the number of times 461243 can be divided by 56.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 46 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 0 from 46.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 461 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
56 can be fit into 461 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 448 from 461.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 132 / 56

On to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 132 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtract 112 from 132 to get 20.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 204 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
204 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 823.0
If we subtract 168 from 204, we get 36.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 363 / 56

On to step 6:
When dividing 363 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 27.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8236.0
If we subtract 336 from 363, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 270 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8236.4
Subtracting 224 from 270 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8236.48
If we subtract 448 from 460, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8236.482
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8236.4821
Deduct 56 from 80 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.

Advancing to step 11:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8236.48214
If we subtract 224 from 240, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8236.482142
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
56 goes into 480 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8236.4821428
If we subtract 448 from 480, 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8236.48214285
Subtracting 280 from 320 leaves us 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.

The final outcome is 8236.48214285, with a leftover of 4e-08.
