706742 ÷ 56 
We want to divide 706742 by 56.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 56 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 70 / 56

Going ahead to step 2:
56 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 56 from 70, we get 14.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 146 / 56

On to step 3:
56 goes into 146 2 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 112 from 146, we get 34.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 347 / 56

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 347 by 56, we get 6 and a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 126.0
Deduct 336 from 347 and we're left with 11.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 114 / 56

Going ahead to step 5:
56 goes into 114 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1262.0
Subtract 112 from 114 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 56

Step 6:
When dividing 22 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12620.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 7:
56 goes into 220 3 times with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 12620.3
If we subtract 168 from 220, we get 52.
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 8:
The number 56 fits into 520 9 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12620.39
Subtract 504 from 520 to get 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 9:
56 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12620.392
If we take 112 away from 160, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 480 by 56, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12620.3928
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12620.39285
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.

On to step 12:
56 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12620.392857
Deduct 392 from 400 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 80 by 56, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12620.3928571
Subtract 56 from 80 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 240 by 56, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12620.39285714
Subtract 224 from 240 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 12620.39285714, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
