We divide 437978 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 437978.

Let's proceed to step 1:
56 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 43 / 56

On to step 2:
43 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 43, we get 43.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 437 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 437 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 45.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 392 from 437, we get 45.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 459 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 459 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 78.0
Subtract 448 from 459 to get 11.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 117 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 117 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 782.0
If we take 112 away from 117, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
58 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 7821.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 56 from 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
20 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7821.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 56 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7821.03
Subtract 168 from 200 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.

Step 9:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7821.035
Subtract 280 from 320 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7821.0357
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: 7821.03571
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7821.035714
Subtract 224 from 240 to 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7821.0357142
Subtract 112 from 160 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 14:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7821.03571428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we 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.

The final result is 7821.03571428 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
