Let's divide 183831 by 53
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 183831.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 53 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 53

On to step 2:
When dividing 18 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 183 / 53

Let's proceed to step 3:
53 goes into 183 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 159 from 183 leaves us with 24.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 248 / 53

Going ahead to step 4:
53 goes into 248 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
If we take 212 away from 248, we end up with 36.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 363 / 53

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 363 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 45.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 346.0
Deduct 318 from 363 and we're left with 45.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 451 / 53

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 53 fits into 451 8 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3468.0
Subtract 424 from 451 to 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.

On to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 270 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3468.5
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 265 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 50 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3468.5
If we take 0 away from 50, we end up with 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 9:
53 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3468.509
Deduct 477 from 500 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 10:
230 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3468.5094
If we take 212 away from 230, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 53 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3468.50943
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 12:
When dividing 210 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3468.509433
If we subtract 159 from 210, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3468.509433, and the remainder is 5.1e-06.
