We divide 249031 by 55
We want to figure out the number of times 249031 can be divided by 55.

On to step 1:
55 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 55

Advancing to step 2:
The number 55 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 249 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
55 goes into 249 4 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 220 from 249, we get 29.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 290 / 55

Advancing to step 4:
290 divided by 55 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 45.0
If we take 275 away from 290, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 153 / 55

Step 5:
55 goes into 153 2 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 452.0
If we take 110 away from 153, we end up with 43.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 431 / 55

Moving on to step 6:
55 can be fit into 431 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4527.0
If we take 385 away from 431, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 460 by 55, we get 8 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4527.8
If we subtract 440 from 460, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
200 divided by 55 is 3 with a remainder of 35.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4527.83
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 165 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4527.836
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 35.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4527.8363
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 55 fits into 350 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4527.83636
Subtracting 330 from 350 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 200 by 55, we get 3 and a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4527.836363
Deduct 165 from 200 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
350 divided by 55 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4527.8363636
Subtract 330 from 350 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 200 by 55, we get 3 with a remainder of 35.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4527.83636363
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 165 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4527.83636363 with a remaining 3.5e-08.
