Let's divide 227911 by 56
Our goal is to divide 227911 by 56.

Going ahead to step 1:
56 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 22 / 56

Step 2:
If we divide 22 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 227 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 227 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 224 away from 227, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 39 0 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 40.0
Subtracting 0 from 39 leaves us with 39.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 391 / 56

On to step 5:
When dividing 391 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 55.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 406.0
Subtract 336 from 391 to get 55.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 551 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 551 9 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4069.0
Subtracting 504 from 551 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
56 can be fit into 470 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4069.8
Deduct 448 from 470 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
56 can be fit into 220 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4069.83
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 168 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
56 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4069.839
Subtract 504 from 520 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.

On to step 10:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4069.8392
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4069.83928
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.

Step 12:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4069.839285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4069.8392857
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.

Step 14:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4069.83928571
Subtract 56 from 80 to 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.

Our division results in 4069.83928571 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
