56501004 divided by 178 
We want to divide 56501004 by 178.

Step 1:
178 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 56 / 178

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 178 fits into 56 0 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 0 from 56.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 56 and repeat the process: 565 / 178

Advancing to step 3:
178 can be fit into 565 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 534 away from 565, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 310 / 178

On to step 4:
If we divide 310 by 178, we get 1 and a remainder of 132.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
Subtract 178 from 310 to get 132.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 132 and repeat the process: 1321 / 178

Step 5:
178 can be fit into 1321 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 75.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 317.0
Deduct 1246 from 1321 and we're left with 75.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 75, then repeat: 750 / 178

On to step 6:
750 divided by 178 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3174.0
If we take 712 away from 750, we end up with 38.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 380 / 178

Moving on to step 7:
178 can be fit into 380 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31742.0
Subtracting 356 from 380 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 244 / 178

Going ahead to step 8:
178 can be fit into 244 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 66.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 317421.0
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 178 from 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 660 by 178, we get 3 with a remainder of 126.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 317421.3
Subtracting 534 from 660 leaves us with 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
178 goes into 1260 7 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 317421.37
Deduct 1246 from 1260 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 178, we get 0 with a remainder of 140.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 317421.37
If we subtract 0 from 140, we get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
178 goes into 1400 7 times with a remainder of 154.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 317421.3707
If we subtract 1246 from 1400, we get 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 1540 by 178, we get 8 and a remainder of 116.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 317421.37078
The remainder is 116 after subtracting 1424 from 1540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 178 fits into 1160 6 times, leaving a remainder of 92.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 317421.370786
Deduct 1068 from 1160 and we're left with 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
178 goes into 920 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 317421.3707865
If we subtract 890 from 920, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 16:
178 can be fit into 300 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 317421.37078651
Deduct 178 from 300 and we're left with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

The final result is 317421.37078651 with a remainder of 1.22e-07.
