We look at the division of 62873 by 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 62873.

Advancing to step 1:
55 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 62 / 55

Step 2:
55 goes into 62 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 55 from 62 to get 7.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 78 / 55

On to step 3:
55 goes into 78 1 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 55 from 78 and we're left with 23.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 237 / 55

Moving on to step 4:
55 can be fit into 237 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 220 from 237.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 173 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
55 can be fit into 173 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1143.0
Deduct 165 from 173 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.

Going ahead to step 6:
55 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1143.1
Subtract 55 from 80 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1143.14
Subtracting 220 from 250 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 300 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1143.145
Subtract 275 from 300 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1143.1454
If we take 220 away from 250, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 55, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1143.14545
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 275 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
250 divided by 55 is 4 with a remainder of 30.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1143.145454
If we take 220 away from 250, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 300 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1143.1454545
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 275 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 250 by 55, we get 4 and a remainder of 30.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1143.14545454
Subtracting 220 from 250 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1143.14545454 and a remainder of 3e-08.
