Let's divide 316637 by 56
Our goal is to divide 316637 by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
3 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 316 / 56

Step 3:
If we divide 316 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 36.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 280 from 316 leaves us with 36.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 366 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 366 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56.0
Subtract 336 from 366 to get 30.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 30 and continue with: 303 / 56

On to step 5:
56 goes into 303 5 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 565.0
If we subtract 280 from 303, we get 23.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 237 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
237 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 13.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5654.0
Subtracting 224 from 237 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
130 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5654.2
If we take 112 away from 130, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
56 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5654.23
If we take 168 away from 180, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5654.232
If we take 112 away from 120, 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5654.2321
Deduct 56 from 80 and we're left 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 11:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5654.23214
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5654.232142
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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5654.2321428
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5654.23214285
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.

The quotient of the division is 5654.23214285, and the remainder is 4e-08.
