We're dividing 55540 by 54 
Let's see how many times 54 fits into 55540.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 54

Step 2:
54 goes into 55 1 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 54 from 55, we get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 54

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 15 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 15.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 15, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 154 / 54

On to step 4:
If we divide 154 by 54, we get 2 and a remainder of 46.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 102.0
Deduct 108 from 154 and we're left with 46.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 460 / 54

Step 5:
If we divide 460 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1028.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 432 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
280 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1028.5
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 270 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 100 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1028.51
If we subtract 54 from 100, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
54 can be fit into 460 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1028.518
If we take 432 away from 460, we end up 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.

Step 9:
The number 54 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1028.5185
Deduct 270 from 280 and we're left 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 10:
54 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1028.51851
Subtract 54 from 100 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 460 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1028.518518
Subtracting 432 from 460 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
54 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1028.5185185
If we subtract 270 from 280, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
54 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1028.51851851
Subtracting 54 from 100 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1028.51851851 and a remainder of 4.6e-08.
