261828 ÷ 55 
We want to figure out the number of times 261828 can be divided by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
55 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 261 / 55

Step 3:
If we divide 261 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 220 from 261, we get 41.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 418 / 55

On to step 4:
The number 55 fits into 418 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 385 from 418 and we're left with 33.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 332 / 55

Step 5:
55 can be fit into 332 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 476.0
Deduct 330 from 332 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 55

Step 6:
28 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4760.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
280 divided by 55 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4760.5
Subtract 275 from 280 to 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.

Step 8:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4760.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4760.509
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 10:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4760.509
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 4760.50909
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.

On to step 12:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4760.50909
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.

Step 13:
If we divide 500 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4760.5090909
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.

Step 14:
55 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4760.5090909
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.

Our division results in 4760.5090909 with a remaining 5e-08.
