We're dividing 55600427 by 254 
Our goal is to divide 55600427 by 254.

On to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 254, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 254

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 254 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 0 from 55.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 556 / 254

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 556 by 254, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 508 from 556.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 480 / 254

On to step 4:
The number 254 fits into 480 1 times, leaving a remainder of 226.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
Subtract 254 from 480 to get 226.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 226, then repeat: 2260 / 254

Moving on to step 5:
2260 divided by 254 is 8 with a remainder of 228.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 218.0
If we subtract 2032 from 2260, we get 228.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 228, then repeat: 2284 / 254

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 2284 by 254, we get 8 and a remainder of 252.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2188.0
Subtracting 2032 from 2284 leaves us with 252.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 252 and continue with: 2522 / 254

On to step 7:
254 can be fit into 2522 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 236.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 21889.0
Subtracting 2286 from 2522 leaves us with 236.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 236 and continue: 2367 / 254

Step 8:
254 goes into 2367 9 times with a remainder of 81.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 218899.0
If we take 2286 away from 2367, we end up with 81.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 254 fits into 810 3 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 218899.3
If we subtract 762 from 810, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 480 by 254, we get 1 with a remainder of 226.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 218899.31
Subtracting 254 from 480 leaves us with 226.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2260 divided by 254 is 8 with a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 218899.318
The remainder is 228 after subtracting 2032 from 2260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
254 can be fit into 2280 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 248.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 218899.3188
If we subtract 2032 from 2280, we get 248.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2480, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 218899.3188, and the remainder is 0.00248.
