We're dividing 34979 by 55 
Let's see how many times 55 fits into 34979.

On to step 1:
55 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 34 / 55

On to step 2:
If we divide 34 by 55, we get 0 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 34, we get 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
349 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 330 from 349.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 197 / 55

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 197 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 63.0
If we subtract 165 from 197, we get 32.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 329 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
55 goes into 329 5 times with a remainder of 54.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 635.0
If we subtract 275 from 329, we get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
If we divide 540 by 55, we get 9 and a remainder of 45.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 635.9
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 495 from 540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 635.98
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 440 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 55 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 635.981
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 55 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 55 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 635.9818
Subtracting 440 from 450 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 635.98181
If we take 55 away from 100, we end up with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 450 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 635.981818
Subtracting 440 from 450 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
55 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 635.9818181
Deduct 55 from 100 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 635.98181818
If we subtract 440 from 450, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final result is 635.98181818 with a remainder of 1e-08.
