Let's divide 85046 by 56
Let's see how many times 56 fits into 85046.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 56, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 85 / 56

Moving on to step 2:
The number 56 fits into 85 1 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 56 from 85 leaves us with 29.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 290 / 56

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 56 fits into 290 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 280 from 290 and we're left with 10.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 104 / 56

On to step 4:
If we divide 104 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 48.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 151.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 56 from 104.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 486 / 56

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 486 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1518.0
Deduct 448 from 486 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 380 by 56, we get 6 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1518.6
If we take 336 away from 380, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
440 divided by 56 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1518.67
If we subtract 392 from 440, we get 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 8:
If we divide 480 by 56, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1518.678
If we take 448 away from 480, we end up with 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 9:
320 divided by 56 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1518.6785
Subtract 280 from 320 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 400 by 56, we get 7 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1518.67857
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 56, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1518.678571
If we subtract 56 from 80, we 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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 56, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1518.6785714
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.

On to step 13:
The number 56 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1518.67857142
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.

Our division results in 1518.67857142 with a remaining 4.8e-08.
