Let's divide 55258610 by 972
Our goal is to divide 55258610 by 972.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 972 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 972

Going ahead to step 2:
972 goes into 55 0 times with a remainder of 55.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 55 to get 55.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 55, then repeat: 552 / 972

Going ahead to step 3:
972 can be fit into 552 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 552.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 552 after subtracting 0 from 552.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 552 and repeat the process: 5525 / 972

On to step 4:
If we divide 5525 by 972, we get 5 and a remainder of 665.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 4860 from 5525, we get 665.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 665 and continue: 6658 / 972

On to step 5:
972 can be fit into 6658 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 826.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 56.0
Deduct 5832 from 6658 and we're left with 826.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 826, then repeat: 8266 / 972

On to step 6:
If we divide 8266 by 972, we get 8 and a remainder of 490.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 568.0
If we take 7776 away from 8266, we end up with 490.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 490 and continue with: 4901 / 972

On to step 7:
The number 972 fits into 4901 5 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5685.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 4860 from 4901.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 410 / 972

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 410 by 972, we get 0 with a remainder of 410.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56850.0
The remainder is 410 after subtracting 0 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 972 fits into 4100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 212.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56850.4
The remainder is 212 after subtracting 3888 from 4100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
972 goes into 2120 2 times with a remainder of 176.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56850.42
Subtracting 1944 from 2120 leaves us with 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 1760 by 972, we get 1 with a remainder of 788.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 56850.421
If we take 972 away from 1760, we end up with 788.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 972 fits into 7880 8 times, leaving a remainder of 104.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56850.4218
The remainder is 104 after subtracting 7776 from 7880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1040, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
1040 divided by 972 is 1 with a remainder of 68.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 56850.42181
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 972 from 1040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
680 divided by 972 is 0 with a remainder of 680.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56850.42181
Subtract 0 from 680 to get 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
972 can be fit into 6800 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 968.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56850.4218106
The remainder is 968 after subtracting 5832 from 6800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
972 can be fit into 9680 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 932.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56850.42181069
Deduct 8748 from 9680 and we're left with 932.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 56850.42181069, with a leftover of 9.32e-07.
