688174 ÷ 56 
We want to figure out the number of times 688174 can be divided by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 56 fits into 6 0 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 6 and we're left with 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 56

On to step 2:
If we divide 68 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 56 from 68 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 56

On to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 128 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtract 112 from 128 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 161 / 56

Step 4:
The number 56 fits into 161 2 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 122.0
If we subtract 112 from 161, we get 49.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 497 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 497 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 49.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1228.0
If we take 448 away from 497, we end up with 49.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 494 / 56

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 494 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 46.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12288.0
Subtracting 448 from 494 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
460 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12288.8
If we subtract 448 from 460, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
120 divided by 56 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12288.82
Deduct 112 from 120 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12288.821
If we take 56 away from 80, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
56 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12288.8214
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 56, we get 2 and a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12288.82142
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 112 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12288.821428
If we subtract 448 from 480, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
56 can be fit into 320 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12288.8214285
If we take 280 away from 320, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12288.82142857
Subtract 392 from 400 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12288.82142857, and the remainder is 8e-09.
