Let's divide 161938 by 55
Our goal is to divide 161938 by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 55

Moving on to step 2:
55 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 161 / 55

On to step 3:
If we divide 161 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 51.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 110 away from 161, we end up with 51.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 519 / 55

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 519 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 495 from 519 and we're left with 24.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 243 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 243 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 23.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 294.0
If we take 220 away from 243, we end up with 23.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 238 / 55

On to step 6:
The number 55 fits into 238 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2944.0
Subtracting 220 from 238 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 180 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 15.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2944.3
Subtracting 165 from 180 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2944.32
Subtract 110 from 150 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
55 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2944.327
If we take 385 away from 400, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2944.3272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2944.32727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
150 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2944.327272
If we subtract 110 from 150, 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 400 by 55, we get 7 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2944.3272727
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2944.32727272
Subtract 110 from 150 to 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.

Our division results in 2944.32727272 with a remaining 4e-08.
