We look at the division of 55907125 by 462 
We want to divide 55907125 by 462.

Going ahead to step 1:
462 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 462

On to step 2:
55 divided by 462 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 55 and continue: 559 / 462

Going ahead to step 3:
462 goes into 559 1 times with a remainder of 97.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 462 from 559 and we're left with 97.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 97, then repeat: 970 / 462

On to step 4:
462 can be fit into 970 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 924 from 970, we get 46.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 467 / 462

Step 5:
The number 462 fits into 467 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121.0
Subtract 462 from 467 to get 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 462

On to step 6:
When dividing 51 by 462, we get 0 with a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1210.0
Subtract 0 from 51 to get 51.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 512 / 462

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 512 by 462, we get 1 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12101.0
Subtract 462 from 512 to get 50.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 505 / 462

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 505 by 462, we get 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121011.0
Subtract 462 from 505 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 430 by 462, we get 0 and a remainder of 430.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121011.0
Subtract 0 from 430 to get 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
462 goes into 4300 9 times with a remainder of 142.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121011.09
If we take 4158 away from 4300, we end up with 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
462 can be fit into 1420 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121011.093
Subtracting 1386 from 1420 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.

On to step 12:
462 can be fit into 340 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 340.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121011.093
The remainder is 340 after subtracting 0 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
462 can be fit into 3400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 166.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121011.09307
Subtracting 3234 from 3400 leaves us with 166.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 462 fits into 1660 3 times, leaving a remainder of 274.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121011.093073
Subtract 1386 from 1660 to get 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
The number 462 fits into 2740 5 times, leaving a remainder of 430.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 121011.0930735
If we take 2310 away from 2740, we end up with 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
462 goes into 4300 9 times with a remainder of 142.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121011.09307359
Subtract 4158 from 4300 to get 142.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1420, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 121011.09307359, and the remainder is 1.42e-07.
