152720 divided by 56 
We're looking to find how many times 56 goes into 152720.

Going ahead to step 1:
56 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 56

Step 2:
15 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 15.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 15, we get 15.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 152 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 152 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 112 from 152 and we're left with 40.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 407 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 goes into 407 7 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 27.0
If we take 392 away from 407, we end up with 15.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 152 / 56

On to step 5:
If we divide 152 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 40.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 272.0
Subtracting 112 from 152 leaves us with 40.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 400 / 56

On to step 6:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2727.0
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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2727.1
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up 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 8:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2727.14
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2727.142
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2727.1428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2727.14285
Subtracting 280 from 320 leaves us 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 12:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2727.142857
If we subtract 392 from 400, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 56 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2727.1428571
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2727.14285714
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 2727.14285714 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
