Let's divide 253276 by 56
We want to divide 253276 by 56.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 56

On to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 253 / 56

Step 3:
The number 56 fits into 253 4 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 224 from 253 leaves us with 29.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 292 / 56

Step 4:
When dividing 292 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 45.0
Subtracting 280 from 292 leaves us with 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 goes into 127 2 times with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 452.0
If we take 112 away from 127, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 156 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
56 goes into 156 2 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4522.0
If we subtract 112 from 156, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
56 goes into 440 7 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4522.7
Subtract 392 from 440 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4522.78
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.

On to step 9:
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: 4522.785
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 280 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 56 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4522.7857
Subtract 392 from 400 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4522.78571
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.

On to step 12:
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: 4522.785714
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4522.7857142
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4522.78571428
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 4522.78571428, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
