We're dividing 487321 by 55 
We want to divide 487321 by 55.

On to step 1:
The number 55 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 55

On to step 2:
55 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 487 / 55

Moving on to step 3:
The number 55 fits into 487 8 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 440 from 487 to get 47.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 473 / 55

On to step 4:
55 can be fit into 473 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 88.0
Subtract 440 from 473 to get 33.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 332 / 55

Step 5:
If we divide 332 by 55, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 886.0
Subtracting 330 from 332 leaves us with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 55

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 21 by 55, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8860.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 55 fits into 210 3 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.3
If we subtract 165 from 210, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.38
If we subtract 440 from 450, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8860.381
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
55 goes into 450 8 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8860.3818
Subtract 440 from 450 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
100 divided by 55 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8860.38181
Subtract 55 from 100 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
55 can be fit into 450 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.381818
If we take 440 away from 450, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 100 by 55, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8860.3818181
Subtracting 55 from 100 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 450 by 55, we get 8 and a remainder of 10.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8860.38181818
Deduct 440 from 450 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 8860.38181818 and a remainder of 1e-08.
