We divide 862712 by 54
Our goal is to divide 862712 by 54.

Let's proceed to step 1:
54 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 54

Advancing to step 2:
54 can be fit into 86 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 54 from 86 to get 32.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 322 / 54

On to step 3:
322 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 270 from 322 leaves us with 52.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 527 / 54

Moving on to step 4:
54 goes into 527 9 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 159.0
Subtract 486 from 527 to get 41.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 411 / 54

Advancing to step 5:
The number 54 fits into 411 7 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1597.0
Deduct 378 from 411 and we're left with 33.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 332 / 54

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 332 by 54, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15976.0
Subtracting 324 from 332 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 54 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15976.1
If we take 54 away from 80, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 8:
54 can be fit into 260 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15976.14
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 216 from 260.
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:
54 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15976.148
If we subtract 432 from 440, we get 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 10:
When dividing 80 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15976.1481
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 54 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 54 fits into 260 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15976.14814
Subtract 216 from 260 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
440 divided by 54 is 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15976.148148
Subtract 432 from 440 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
54 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15976.1481481
If we take 54 away from 80, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 260 by 54, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15976.14814814
Subtract 216 from 260 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

The final result is 15976.14814814 with a remainder of 4.4e-08.
