We're dividing 517539 by 56 
We want to divide 517539 by 56.

On to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 51 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 51, we end up with 51.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 517 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 517 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 504 from 517.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 135 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
135 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 92.0
Subtract 112 from 135 to get 23.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 233 4 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 924.0
Subtracting 224 from 233 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
99 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 9241.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 56 from 99.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 430 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9241.7
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 392 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
380 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9241.76
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 336 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
440 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9241.767
If we take 392 away from 440, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9241.7678
Subtract 448 from 480 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 9241.76785
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.

Moving on to step 12:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9241.767857
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 80 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9241.7678571
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9241.76785714
Subtract 224 from 240 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9241.76785714 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
