We divide 995889 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 995889.

Let's proceed to step 1:
56 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
56 goes into 99 1 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 56 from 99 leaves us with 43.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 435 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 435 7 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 392 away from 435, we end up with 43.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 438 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 438 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 177.0
If we subtract 392 from 438, we get 46.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 468 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
468 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1778.0
If we take 448 away from 468, we end up with 20.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 209 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
56 can be fit into 209 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17783.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 168 from 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 56 fits into 410 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17783.7
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 392 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
180 divided by 56 is 3 with a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17783.73
Subtracting 168 from 180 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
120 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17783.732
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:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17783.7321
If we subtract 56 from 80, we 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 11:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17783.73214
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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17783.732142
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17783.7321428
Subtract 448 from 480 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17783.73214285
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 17783.73214285 with a balance of 4e-08.
