996266 ÷ 56 
We want to divide 996266 by 56.

On to step 1:
56 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
56 goes into 99 1 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 56 from 99.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 43 and continue: 436 / 56

On to step 3:
436 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 392 from 436 and we're left with 44.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 442 / 56

Step 4:
If we divide 442 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 50.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 177.0
Deduct 392 from 442 and we're left with 50.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 506 / 56

Step 5:
56 goes into 506 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1779.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 504 from 506.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 56

Step 6:
26 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17790.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 0 from 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 can be fit into 260 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17790.4
Subtracting 224 from 260 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 56 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17790.46
Subtract 336 from 360 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
56 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17790.464
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
160 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 48.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17790.4642
Subtracting 112 from 160 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17790.46428
Subtract 448 from 480 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
56 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17790.464285
If we take 280 away from 320, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 13:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17790.4642857
Subtract 392 from 400 to 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 80 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17790.46428571
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17790.46428571 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
