We're dividing 212183 by 56 
We want to divide 212183 by 56.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 56, we get 0 and 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.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 56

Advancing to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 212 / 56

Step 3:
56 goes into 212 3 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 168 from 212, we get 44.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 441 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
The number 56 fits into 441 7 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 37.0
If we take 392 away from 441, we end up with 49.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 498 / 56

Let's proceed to step 5:
498 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 50.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 378.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 448 from 498.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 503 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 56 fits into 503 8 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3788.0
Deduct 448 from 503 and we're left with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 goes into 550 9 times with a remainder of 46.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.9
If we subtract 504 from 550, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
460 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3788.98
If we subtract 448 from 460, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 120 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.982
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left 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 10:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.9821
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.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3788.98214
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:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.982142
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 112 from 160.
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:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.9821428
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.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3788.98214285
Subtract 280 from 320 to 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.

After the division, we end up with 3788.98214285 and a remainder of 4e-08.
