Let's divide 50865 by 56
Our goal is to divide 50865 by 56.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
50 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 50.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 508 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 508 by 56, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
If we take 504 away from 508, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
46 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 90.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 465 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
56 can be fit into 465 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 908.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 448 from 465.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 170 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 908.3
If we subtract 168 from 170, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 56 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 908.3
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 908.303
Subtracting 168 from 200 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 908.3035
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 908.30357
If we subtract 392 from 400, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 908.303571
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.

On to step 12:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 908.3035714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we 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.

Step 13:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 908.30357142
If we take 112 away from 160, 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.

The final outcome is 908.30357142, with a leftover of 4.8e-08.
