We divide 478102 by 55
Our goal is to divide 478102 by 55.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 478 / 55

Advancing to step 3:
55 can be fit into 478 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we take 440 away from 478, we end up with 38.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 381 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 55 fits into 381 6 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 86.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 330 from 381.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 510 / 55

On to step 5:
55 goes into 510 9 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 869.0
Subtract 495 from 510 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 152 / 55

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 152 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8692.0
If we subtract 110 from 152, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 420 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8692.7
Subtracting 385 from 420 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 8:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8692.76
Subtracting 330 from 350 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.

Advancing to step 9:
55 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8692.763
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 165 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 350 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8692.7636
Subtracting 330 from 350 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.

Advancing to step 11:
55 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8692.76363
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8692.763636
Deduct 330 from 350 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
55 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8692.7636363
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 350 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8692.76363636
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8692.76363636, and the remainder is 2e-08.
