We're dividing 687224 by 55 
Our goal is to divide 687224 by 55.

Step 1:
55 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
55 goes into 68 1 times with a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 55 from 68.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 137 / 55

Step 3:
55 goes into 137 2 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 110 away from 137, we end up with 27.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 272 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
55 can be fit into 272 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 124.0
Subtracting 220 from 272 leaves us with 52.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 522 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
55 can be fit into 522 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1249.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 495 from 522.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 274 / 55

Step 6:
The number 55 fits into 274 4 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12494.0
Deduct 220 from 274 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
540 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 12494.9
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 495 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12494.98
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 440 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 55 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12494.981
Deduct 55 from 100 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
450 divided by 55 is 8 with a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12494.9818
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
55 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 45.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12494.98181
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12494.981818
Subtracting 440 from 450 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12494.9818181
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12494.98181818
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 440 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12494.98181818, and the remainder is 1e-08.
