We look at the division of 478780 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 478780 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
56 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 56

On to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 47, we get 47.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 478 / 56

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 478 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 448 from 478.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 307 / 56

Going ahead to step 4:
56 can be fit into 307 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we take 280 away from 307, we end up with 27.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 278 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
56 can be fit into 278 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 854.0
If we take 224 away from 278, we end up with 54.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 540 / 56

On to step 6:
56 goes into 540 9 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8549.0
Subtracting 504 from 540 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8549.6
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8549.64
If we subtract 224 from 240, we 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8549.642
Subtract 112 from 160 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 10:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8549.6428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we 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.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8549.64285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
56 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8549.642857
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
80 divided by 56 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8549.6428571
Subtract 56 from 80 to 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8549.64285714
If we subtract 224 from 240, we 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.

The final outcome is 8549.64285714, with a leftover of 1.6e-08.
