We look at the division of 475978 by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 475978.

Advancing to step 1:
56 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 56

On to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 475 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
56 can be fit into 475 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 448 from 475, we get 27.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 279 / 56

Step 4:
If we divide 279 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 84.0
Subtract 224 from 279 to get 55.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 55, then repeat: 557 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 557 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 53.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 849.0
Subtract 504 from 557 to get 53.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 538 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 538 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8499.0
Subtracting 504 from 538 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 goes into 340 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8499.6
If we take 336 away from 340, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8499.6
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8499.607
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8499.6071
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8499.60714
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.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8499.607142
If we subtract 112 from 160, 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.

Advancing to step 13:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8499.6071428
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.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8499.60714285
Subtracting 280 from 320 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8499.60714285 with a balance of 4e-08.
