We divide 550712 by 43
We want to figure out the number of times 550712 can be divided by 43.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 43 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 43

Going ahead to step 2:
43 goes into 55 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 43 from 55 leaves us with 12.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 120 / 43

Step 3:
43 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 86 from 120.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 347 / 43

Advancing to step 4:
The number 43 fits into 347 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 128.0
Subtracting 344 from 347 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 43

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 31 by 43, we get 0 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1280.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 0 from 31.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 312 / 43

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 312 by 43, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 12807.0
Subtracting 301 from 312 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 43 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12807.2
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 86 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 43 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12807.25
Subtract 215 from 240 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 250 by 43, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12807.255
If we take 215 away from 250, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12807.255 with a remaining 0.0035.
