We look at the division of 542769 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 542769 by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 54 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 54.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 0 from 54.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 542 / 55

Step 3:
55 goes into 542 9 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 495 away from 542, we end up with 47.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 477 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 477 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98.0
If we subtract 440 from 477, we get 37.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 376 / 55

Step 5:
When dividing 376 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 46.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 986.0
Deduct 330 from 376 and we're left with 46.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 469 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 469 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9868.0
If we take 440 away from 469, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
55 goes into 290 5 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9868.5
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 275 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 9868.52
If we take 110 away from 150, we end up 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 400 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9868.527
Deduct 385 from 400 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9868.5272
If we take 110 away from 150, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9868.52727
If we subtract 385 from 400, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9868.527272
Subtract 110 from 150 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9868.5272727
Subtract 385 from 400 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 150 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9868.52727272
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 110 from 150.
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 9868.52727272, with a leftover of 4e-08.
