12724048 divided by 55 
Our goal is to divide 12724048 by 55.

Let's proceed to step 1:
55 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 55

Going ahead to step 2:
55 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 55

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 127 by 55, we get 2 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 110 away from 127, we end up with 17.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 172 / 55

Step 4:
55 goes into 172 3 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtract 165 from 172 to get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 55

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 74 by 55, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 231.0
If we take 55 away from 74, we end up with 19.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 190 / 55

Step 6:
55 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2313.0
Subtract 165 from 190 to get 25.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 254 / 55

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 254 by 55, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23134.0
If we subtract 220 from 254, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 348 / 55

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 348 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 231346.0
Subtracting 330 from 348 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
55 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 231346.3
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 165 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
55 can be fit into 150 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 231346.32
Subtract 110 from 150 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
55 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 231346.327
Subtracting 385 from 400 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 150 by 55, we get 2 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 231346.3272
If we take 110 away from 150, 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.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 231346.32727
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 385 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 14:
55 goes into 150 2 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 231346.327272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

On to step 15:
The number 55 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 231346.3272727
Deduct 385 from 400 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
The number 55 fits into 150 2 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 231346.32727272
Subtracting 110 from 150 leaves us 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.

The final result is 231346.32727272 with a remainder of 4e-08.
