638271 divided by 56 
Our goal is to divide 638271 by 56.

Step 1:
56 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 63 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 63 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 56 from 63 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 78 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 56 from 78 leaves us with 22.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 222 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 222 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 54.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 113.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 168 from 222.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 54 and continue with: 547 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 547 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 43.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1139.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 504 from 547.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 431 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
431 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11397.0
If we subtract 392 from 431, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 390 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 54.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11397.6
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 336 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
56 can be fit into 540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11397.69
If we subtract 504 from 540, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
56 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11397.696
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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11397.6964
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 224 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
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: 11397.69642
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 112 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11397.696428
Deduct 448 from 480 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
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: 11397.6964285
Subtract 280 from 320 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.

Step 14:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11397.69642857
Deduct 392 from 400 and we're left 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.

The final result is 11397.69642857 with a remainder of 8e-09.
