Let's divide 879768 by 56
We want to divide 879768 by 56.

Going ahead to step 1:
56 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 56

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 56 away from 87, we end up with 31.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 319 / 56

Step 3:
56 goes into 319 5 times with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 280 from 319, we get 39.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 397 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 397 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we subtract 392 from 397, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 56 / 56

Moving on to step 5:
56 can be fit into 56 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1571.0
Deduct 56 from 56 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
56 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15710.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 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 7:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15710.1
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15710.14
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15710.142
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 56 fits into 480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15710.1428
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.

Step 11:
When dividing 320 by 56, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15710.14285
Subtract 280 from 320 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 56, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15710.142857
If we subtract 392 from 400, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
56 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 15710.1428571
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 56 from 80.
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:
The number 56 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15710.14285714
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 15710.14285714 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
