Let's divide 455956 by 2
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 455956.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 4 from 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 5 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 5 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Subtract 4 from 5 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 2

Step 3:
15 divided by 2 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 227.0
Deduct 14 from 15 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 19 / 2

On to step 4:
The number 2 fits into 19 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2279.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 18 from 19.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 15 / 2

On to step 5:
When dividing 15 by 2, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22797.0
Subtracting 14 from 15 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 16 / 2

Let's proceed to step 6:
16 divided by 2 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 227978.0
Subtracting 16 from 16 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 227978.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 227978.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 227978.0 with a remaining 0.0.
