473707 ÷ 55 
Our goal is to divide 473707 by 55.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 55

On to step 2:
55 can be fit into 47 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 473 / 55

On to step 3:
The number 55 fits into 473 8 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 440 from 473 leaves us with 33.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 337 / 55

On to step 4:
If we divide 337 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 86.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 330 from 337.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 70 / 55

Going ahead to step 5:
55 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 861.0
If we take 55 away from 70, we end up with 15.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 157 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 55 fits into 157 2 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8612.0
Subtract 110 from 157 to get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 470 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8612.8
If we take 440 away from 470, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8612.85
Subtract 275 from 300 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
55 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8612.854
If we take 220 away from 250, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8612.8545
Subtract 275 from 300 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 250 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8612.85454
Subtracting 220 from 250 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 300 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8612.854545
Subtracting 275 from 300 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
55 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8612.8545454
If we take 220 away from 250, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
55 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8612.85454545
Subtract 275 from 300 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 8612.85454545 with a balance of 2.5e-08.
