Let's divide 554846 by 71
Let's see how many times 71 fits into 554846.

Let's proceed to step 1:
71 goes into 5 0 times with 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.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 71

Advancing to step 2:
71 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 0 from 55.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 554 / 71

Step 3:
554 divided by 71 is 7 with a remainder of 57.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 497 from 554, we get 57.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 578 / 71

Let's proceed to step 4:
578 divided by 71 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 78.0
Subtract 568 from 578 to get 10.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 104 / 71

On to step 5:
The number 71 fits into 104 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 781.0
Subtracting 71 from 104 leaves us with 33.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 336 / 71

Step 6:
If we divide 336 by 71, we get 4 and a remainder of 52.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7814.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 284 from 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
71 can be fit into 520 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7814.7
Subtracting 497 from 520 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 230 by 71, we get 3 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7814.73
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 213 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
170 divided by 71 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7814.732
Deduct 142 from 170 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
71 can be fit into 280 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 67.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7814.7323
Subtract 213 from 280 to get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 71 fits into 670 9 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7814.73239
Subtract 639 from 670 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 71 fits into 310 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7814.732394
Subtracting 284 from 310 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 71, we get 3 with a remainder of 47.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7814.7323943
Subtracting 213 from 260 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 71 fits into 470 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 7814.73239436
Deduct 426 from 470 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7814.73239436 with a balance of 4.4e-08.
