We look at the division of 62578 by 56 
We want to divide 62578 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 62 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 62 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 6.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 56 from 62.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
56 goes into 65 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 56 from 65.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 97 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we take 56 away from 97, we end up with 41.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 418 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
418 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1117.0
Subtract 392 from 418 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 6:
The number 56 fits into 260 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1117.4
Deduct 224 from 260 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
360 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1117.46
If we subtract 336 from 360, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1117.464
Subtracting 224 from 240 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1117.4642
Subtract 112 from 160 to 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 10:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1117.46428
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 448 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1117.464285
Deduct 280 from 320 and we're left 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.

On to step 12:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1117.4642857
Subtract 392 from 400 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1117.46428571
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1117.46428571 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
