We look at the division of 478212 by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 478212.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 0 from 47.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 478 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
56 goes into 478 8 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 448 from 478.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 302 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
56 goes into 302 5 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we subtract 280 from 302, we get 22.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 221 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 221 by 56, we get 3 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 853.0
If we subtract 168 from 221, we get 53.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 53, then carry on: 532 / 56

Going ahead to step 6:
56 can be fit into 532 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8539.0
Deduct 504 from 532 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.

Advancing to step 7:
56 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8539.5
Subtract 280 from 280 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
56 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8539.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
56 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8539.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8539.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
