Let's divide 983023 by 54
We want to figure out the number of times 983023 can be divided by 54.

Step 1:
54 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 54

Step 2:
54 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 44.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 54 from 98 to get 44.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 443 / 54

Moving on to step 3:
54 goes into 443 8 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 432 from 443 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 110 / 54

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 54 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 182.0
If we subtract 108 from 110, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 54

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 22 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1820.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 223 / 54

On to step 6:
If we divide 223 by 54, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18204.0
Deduct 216 from 223 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 70 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 16.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18204.1
If we take 54 away from 70, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 54, we get 2 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18204.12
Subtracting 108 from 160 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 520 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18204.129
If we subtract 486 from 520, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 340 by 54, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18204.1296
If we subtract 324 from 340, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 160 by 54, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18204.12962
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 108 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
54 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18204.129629
Deduct 486 from 520 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 340 by 54, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18204.1296296
If we subtract 324 from 340, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
54 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18204.12962962
Subtracting 108 from 160 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18204.12962962 and a remainder of 5.2e-08.
