We're dividing 96886479 by 56 
Our goal is to divide 96886479 by 56.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 56, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 96 / 56

On to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 96 1 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 56 from 96 and we're left with 40.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 408 / 56

Let's proceed to step 3:
408 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 16.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 392 away from 408, we end up with 16.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 168 / 56

Advancing to step 4:
56 can be fit into 168 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 173.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 168 from 168.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 6 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 6 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1730.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
56 can be fit into 64 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17301.0
Subtracting 56 from 64 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 56

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 87 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 173011.0
If we take 56 away from 87, we end up with 31.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 319 / 56

Advancing to step 8:
56 goes into 319 5 times with a remainder of 39.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1730115.0
Subtract 280 from 319 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 56 fits into 390 6 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1730115.6
Deduct 336 from 390 and we're left with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
56 can be fit into 540 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1730115.69
If we take 504 away from 540, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 360 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1730115.696
If we take 336 away from 360, 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 12:
240 divided by 56 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1730115.6964
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.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 56, we get 2 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1730115.69642
Deduct 112 from 160 and we're left with 48.
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 14:
480 divided by 56 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1730115.696428
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.

On to step 15:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1730115.6964285
If we subtract 280 from 320, we get 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 16:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1730115.69642857
If we take 392 away from 400, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 1730115.69642857 and a remainder of 8e-09.
