985778 divided by 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 985778.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 55 away from 98, we end up with 43.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 435 / 55

Advancing to step 3:
55 goes into 435 7 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 385 from 435 leaves us with 50.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 507 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
The number 55 fits into 507 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 179.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 495 from 507.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 127 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 17.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1792.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 110 from 127.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 55

On to step 6:
55 can be fit into 178 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17923.0
Subtract 165 from 178 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
130 divided by 55 is 2 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17923.2
If we subtract 110 from 130, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
200 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17923.23
If we take 165 away from 200, 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 350 by 55, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17923.236
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
55 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17923.2363
If we take 165 away from 200, 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 55 fits into 350 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17923.23636
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
55 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 35.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17923.236363
If we subtract 165 from 200, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 13:
55 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17923.2363636
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 330 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
55 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17923.23636363
Subtract 165 from 200 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 17923.23636363, with a leftover of 3.5e-08.
