148878 divided by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 148878.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
56 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
148 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 112 from 148 and we're left with 36.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 368 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
368 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 336 from 368 to get 32.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 327 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 327 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 47.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 265.0
Subtract 280 from 327 to get 47.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 478 / 56

Moving on to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 478 8 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2658.0
If we subtract 448 from 478, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
300 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2658.5
If we take 280 away from 300, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
200 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2658.53
If we take 168 away from 200, we end up 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:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2658.535
If we subtract 280 from 320, we 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:
The number 56 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2658.5357
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2658.53571
Subtracting 56 from 80 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2658.535714
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:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2658.5357142
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 14:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2658.53571428
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.

The final result is 2658.53571428 with a remainder of 3.2e-08.
