We're dividing 305796 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 305796 by 56.

On to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 305 / 56

On to step 3:
305 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 280 from 305 leaves us with 25.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 257 / 56

Step 4:
If we divide 257 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 33.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 224 from 257 to get 33.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 339 / 56

On to step 5:
When dividing 339 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 546.0
Subtract 336 from 339 to get 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
56 goes into 36 0 times with a remainder of 36.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5460.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
56 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5460.6
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5460.64
Subtract 224 from 240 to 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5460.642
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5460.6428
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up with 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 11:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5460.64285
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 280 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5460.642857
If we take 392 away from 400, 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.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5460.6428571
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5460.64285714
Deduct 224 from 240 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5460.64285714 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
