We divide 251301 by 53
We want to divide 251301 by 53.

Step 1:
The number 53 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
53 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 251 / 53

On to step 3:
251 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 212 from 251 and we're left with 39.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 393 / 53

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 393 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 371 from 393.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 220 / 53

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 220 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 474.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 212 from 220.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 53

Let's proceed to step 6:
81 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4741.0
If we subtract 53 from 81, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 53, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4741.5
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 265 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
150 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 44.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4741.52
If we take 106 away from 150, 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.

Step 9:
440 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4741.528
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 424 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
53 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4741.5283
If we take 159 away from 160, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
10 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4741.5283
If we take 0 away from 10, 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
100 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 47.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4741.528301
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 53 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 53 fits into 470 8 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4741.5283018
If we take 424 away from 470, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 460 by 53, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4741.52830188
If we take 424 away from 460, we end up with 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 4741.52830188 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
