Let's divide 988675 by 56
We want to figure out the number of times 988675 can be divided by 56.

Advancing to step 1:
9 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 56 away from 98, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 428 / 56

On to step 3:
56 goes into 428 7 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 392 from 428 to get 36.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 366 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 366 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtract 336 from 366 to get 30.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 307 / 56

On to step 5:
56 goes into 307 5 times with a remainder of 27.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1765.0
Subtract 280 from 307 to get 27.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 275 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
275 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17654.0
Subtract 224 from 275 to get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
56 can be fit into 510 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17654.9
Subtracting 504 from 510 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17654.91
Deduct 56 from 60 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
40 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17654.91
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17654.9107
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 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17654.91071
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
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.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17654.910714
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.

Advancing to step 13:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17654.9107142
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17654.91071428
Subtract 448 from 480 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 17654.91071428 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
