982679 divided by 56 
We want to figure out the number of times 982679 can be divided by 56.

On to step 1:
56 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 56

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 56 from 98 leaves us with 42.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 422 / 56

Step 3:
56 goes into 422 7 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 392 from 422 to get 30.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 306 / 56

Step 4:
If we divide 306 by 56, we get 5 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 175.0
If we subtract 280 from 306, we get 26.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 267 / 56

Step 5:
The number 56 fits into 267 4 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1754.0
Subtract 224 from 267 to get 43.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 43, then carry on: 439 / 56

Let's proceed to step 6:
56 goes into 439 7 times with a remainder of 47.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17547.0
If we take 392 away from 439, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
56 can be fit into 470 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17547.8
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 448 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 220 by 56, we get 3 and a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17547.83
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 168 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
56 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17547.839
Subtracting 504 from 520 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
56 can be fit into 160 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17547.8392
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.

Advancing to step 11:
56 can be fit into 480 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17547.83928
Subtract 448 from 480 to 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 56 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17547.839285
Subtracting 280 from 320 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 13:
400 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17547.8392857
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 392 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
56 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17547.83928571
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.

The quotient of the division is 17547.83928571, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
