Step 1: Divide by 2

Start by dividing 55 by 2:

55 ÷ 2 = 27 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 2: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (27) by 2:

27 ÷ 2 = 13 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 3: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (13) by 2:

13 ÷ 2 = 6 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 4: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (6) by 2:

6 ÷ 2 = 3 (Quotient) with a remainder of 0

Step 5: Divide the Quotient

Now, divide the quotient (3) by 2:

3 ÷ 2 = 1 (Quotient) with a remainder of 1

Step 6: Final actions

The Quotient is less than 2 (1), so we will transfer it to the beginning of the number as a reminder.

Step 7: Write the Remainders in Reverse Order
