140638 ÷ 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 140638.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
56 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 140 / 56

On to step 3:
56 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 112 from 140 and we're left with 28.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 286 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
286 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 6.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
Deduct 280 from 286 and we're left with 6.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 63 / 56

Step 5:
The number 56 fits into 63 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 251.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 56 from 63.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 78 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2511.0
If we subtract 56 from 78, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
56 goes into 220 3 times with a remainder of 52.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2511.3
If we take 168 away from 220, we end up with 52.
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 8:
When dividing 520 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2511.39
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 504 from 520.
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 9:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2511.392
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us 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 10:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2511.3928
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2511.39285
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 280 from 320.
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 12:
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: 2511.392857
Subtract 392 from 400 to get 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 13:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2511.3928571
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up 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 14:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2511.39285714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we 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.

After the division, we end up with 2511.39285714 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
