Let's divide 16998 by 56
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 16998.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
56 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 56

Step 3:
When dividing 169 by 56, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 168 from 169 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 goes into 19 0 times with a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 30.0
Deduct 0 from 19 and we're left with 19.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 198 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 198 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 30.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 303.0
If we subtract 168 from 198, 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.

Step 6:
56 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 303.5
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.

Going ahead to step 7:
200 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 303.53
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 168 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 303.535
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 303.5357
Subtracting 392 from 400 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 303.53571
Subtract 56 from 80 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 303.535714
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 12:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 303.5357142
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 303.53571428
Deduct 448 from 480 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 303.53571428 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
