We divide 2655 by 56
Our goal is to divide 2655 by 56.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 26 0 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 26 and we're left with 26.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 265 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
265 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 224 from 265, we get 41.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 415 / 56

Step 4:
56 can be fit into 415 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 392 from 415 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 56 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47.4
Deduct 224 from 230 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
60 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.41
Subtract 56 from 60 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 40 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47.41
If we subtract 0 from 40, 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.4107
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.41071
Deduct 56 from 80 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.410714
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.

On to step 11:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47.4107142
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.

Step 12:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.41071428
If we take 448 away from 480, 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.

Our division results in 47.41071428 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
