We look at the division of 55453440 by 724 
We want to figure out the number of times 55453440 can be divided by 724.

Going ahead to step 1:
724 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 724

Let's proceed to step 2:
55 divided by 724 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 55 and we're left with 55.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 554 / 724

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 554 by 724, we get 0 and a remainder of 554.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 554 after subtracting 0 from 554.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 554, then repeat: 5545 / 724

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 724 fits into 5545 7 times, leaving a remainder of 477.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 5068 from 5545, we get 477.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 477, then repeat: 4773 / 724

Advancing to step 5:
724 can be fit into 4773 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 429.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 76.0
Deduct 4344 from 4773 and we're left with 429.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 429 and continue: 4294 / 724

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 724 fits into 4294 5 times, leaving a remainder of 674.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 765.0
The remainder is 674 after subtracting 3620 from 4294.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 674 and repeat the process: 6744 / 724

On to step 7:
6744 divided by 724 is 9 with a remainder of 228.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7659.0
If we take 6516 away from 6744, we end up with 228.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 228 and continue: 2280 / 724

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 724 fits into 2280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 108.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 76593.0
Deduct 2172 from 2280 and we're left with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 724 fits into 1080 1 times, leaving a remainder of 356.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 76593.1
Subtract 724 from 1080 to get 356.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
724 goes into 3560 4 times with a remainder of 664.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 76593.14
Subtracting 2896 from 3560 leaves us with 664.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 6640 by 724, we get 9 with a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 76593.149
Subtract 6516 from 6640 to get 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
724 goes into 1240 1 times with a remainder of 516.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 76593.1491
Subtract 724 from 1240 to get 516.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
5160 divided by 724 is 7 with a remainder of 92.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 76593.14917
The remainder is 92 after subtracting 5068 from 5160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 920 by 724, we get 1 and a remainder of 196.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 76593.149171
The remainder is 196 after subtracting 724 from 920.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1960, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
724 goes into 1960 2 times with a remainder of 512.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 76593.1491712
The remainder is 512 after subtracting 1448 from 1960.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
The number 724 fits into 5120 7 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 76593.14917127
Subtract 5068 from 5120 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 76593.14917127, and the remainder is 5.2e-08.
