We divide 55640638 by 229
Let's see how many times 229 fits into 55640638.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 229, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 55 / 229

Moving on to step 2:
55 divided by 229 is 0 with a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 55, we end up with 55.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 556 / 229

Going ahead to step 3:
556 divided by 229 is 2 with a remainder of 98.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 458 from 556 and we're left with 98.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 98, then repeat: 984 / 229

Moving on to step 4:
984 divided by 229 is 4 with a remainder of 68.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtract 916 from 984 to get 68.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 68 and continue: 680 / 229

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 229 fits into 680 2 times, leaving a remainder of 222.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242.0
Subtract 458 from 680 to get 222.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 222, then repeat: 2226 / 229

Going ahead to step 6:
2226 divided by 229 is 9 with a remainder of 165.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2429.0
Subtracting 2061 from 2226 leaves us with 165.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 165, then repeat: 1653 / 229

On to step 7:
1653 divided by 229 is 7 with a remainder of 50.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24297.0
If we take 1603 away from 1653, we end up with 50.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 508 / 229

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 508 by 229, we get 2 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242972.0
Subtracting 458 from 508 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 229 fits into 500 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 242972.2
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 458 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
229 goes into 420 1 times with a remainder of 191.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242972.21
Deduct 229 from 420 and we're left with 191.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1910, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 1910 by 229, we get 8 and a remainder of 78.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242972.218
Subtract 1832 from 1910 to get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 780 by 229, we get 3 with a remainder of 93.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242972.2183
Deduct 687 from 780 and we're left with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
229 goes into 930 4 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 242972.21834
If we take 916 away from 930, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 140 by 229, we get 0 and a remainder of 140.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 242972.21834
Deduct 0 from 140 and we're left with 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 1400 by 229, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 242972.2183406
Subtracting 1374 from 1400 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
229 goes into 260 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 242972.21834061
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 229 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 242972.21834061, and the remainder is 3.1e-08.
