We divide 317294 by 56
We want to divide 317294 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 31 / 56

Step 2:
31 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 31, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 317 / 56

Advancing to step 3:
56 goes into 317 5 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 280 from 317.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 372 / 56

Moving on to step 4:
372 divided by 56 is 6 with a remainder of 36.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 336 from 372.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 369 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 369 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 33.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 566.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 336 from 369.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 334 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 334 5 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5665.0
If we subtract 280 from 334, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 540 by 56, we get 9 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5665.9
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 504 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
56 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5665.96
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 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 9:
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: 5665.964
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.

Step 10:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5665.9642
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.

On to step 11:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5665.96428
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.

On to step 12:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5665.964285
Deduct 280 from 320 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5665.9642857
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.

On to step 14:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5665.96428571
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.

Our division results in 5665.96428571 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
