We're dividing 217750 by 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 217750.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
21 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 55

Let's proceed to step 3:
217 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 165 from 217 and we're left with 52.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 527 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 527 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 32.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we subtract 495 from 527, we get 32.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 325 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
325 divided by 55 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 395.0
Subtract 275 from 325 to get 50.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 500 / 55

Let's proceed to step 6:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3959.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 495 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3959.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 500 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3959.09
If we subtract 495 from 500, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3959.09
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
55 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3959.0909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3959.0909
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3959.090909
If we take 495 away from 500, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3959.090909
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3959.09090909
Subtracting 495 from 500 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3959.09090909 with a remaining 5e-09.
