We're dividing 173120 by 53 
We want to divide 173120 by 53.

On to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 53

Step 2:
If we divide 17 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 173 / 53

Step 3:
When dividing 173 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 159 from 173 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 141 / 53

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 141 by 53, we get 2 with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 106 from 141.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 352 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 can be fit into 352 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 326.0
Deduct 318 from 352 and we're left with 34.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 340 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 340 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3266.0
Subtract 318 from 340 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
53 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3266.4
Subtracting 212 from 220 leaves us 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 8:
53 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3266.41
If we subtract 53 from 80, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Step 9:
270 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3266.415
Subtract 265 from 270 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 10:
53 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3266.415
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 500 by 53, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3266.41509
Subtract 477 from 500 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
53 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3266.415094
Subtracting 212 from 230 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
180 divided by 53 is 3 with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3266.4150943
If we take 159 away from 180, we end up 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.

Step 14:
210 divided by 53 is 3 with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3266.41509433
If we take 159 away from 210, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3266.41509433 with a remaining 5.1e-08.
