117888 divided by 52 
We want to figure out the number of times 117888 can be divided by 52.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
52 goes into 11 0 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 11 to get 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 52

On to step 3:
52 can be fit into 117 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 104 from 117 to get 13.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 138 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 138 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
Deduct 104 from 138 and we're left with 34.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 348 / 52

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 348 by 52, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 226.0
If we take 312 away from 348, we end up with 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 368 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2267.0
Deduct 364 from 368 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
40 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2267.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
52 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2267.07
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 364 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2267.076
If we take 312 away from 360, 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 480 by 52, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2267.0769
If we take 468 away from 480, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 11:
120 divided by 52 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2267.07692
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 104 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
52 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2267.076923
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2267.076923
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2267.07692307
If we subtract 364 from 400, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2267.07692307 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
