We look at the division of 277688 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 277688 by 55.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 27 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 27 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 27.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 277 / 55

On to step 3:
55 goes into 277 5 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 275 away from 277, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
55 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 268 / 55

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 268 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 504.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 220 from 268.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 488 / 55

Step 6:
When dividing 488 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5048.0
If we subtract 440 from 488, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
480 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5048.8
Deduct 440 from 480 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
400 divided by 55 is 7 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5048.87
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.

Moving on to step 9:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5048.872
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 400 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5048.8727
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.

Moving on to step 11:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5048.87272
If we subtract 110 from 150, 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5048.872727
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.

Step 13:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5048.8727272
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.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5048.87272727
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.

After the division, we end up with 5048.87272727 and a remainder of 1.5e-08.
