We divide 261753 by 56
We want to divide 261753 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
56 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
56 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 261 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
261 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 224 from 261, we get 37.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 377 / 56

Step 4:
56 goes into 377 6 times with a remainder of 41.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 336 from 377.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 415 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
415 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 467.0
Subtract 392 from 415 to get 23.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 233 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 233 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 9.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4674.0
If we take 224 away from 233, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4674.1
Subtract 56 from 90 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
56 can be fit into 340 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4674.16
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4674.16
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 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 10:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4674.1607
If we take 392 away from 400, 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.

On to step 11:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4674.16071
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 12:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4674.160714
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4674.1607142
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 112 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 14:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4674.16071428
Subtracting 448 from 480 leaves us 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.

The final result is 4674.16071428 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
