962857 ÷ 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 962857.

Going ahead to step 1:
9 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 96 / 55

Let's proceed to step 2:
96 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 41.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 55 from 96 leaves us with 41.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 412 / 55

On to step 3:
If we divide 412 by 55, we get 7 and a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 385 away from 412, we end up with 27.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 278 / 55

Step 4:
When dividing 278 by 55, we get 5 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 175.0
Subtract 275 from 278 to get 3.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 35 / 55

Let's proceed to step 5:
55 goes into 35 0 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1750.0
Subtract 0 from 35 to get 35.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 357 / 55

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 55 fits into 357 6 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17506.0
Subtracting 330 from 357 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 55 fits into 270 4 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17506.4
If we take 220 away from 270, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
55 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17506.49
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 495 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 50 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17506.49
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17506.4909
Subtract 495 from 500 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 55 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17506.4909
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
500 divided by 55 is 9 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17506.490909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
50 divided by 55 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17506.490909
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 500 by 55, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17506.49090909
Deduct 495 from 500 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17506.49090909 with a balance of 5e-09.
