We're dividing 508631 by 53 
Our goal is to divide 508631 by 53.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
53 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 508 / 53

Moving on to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 508 9 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 477 from 508 leaves us with 31.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 316 / 53

Let's proceed to step 4:
53 can be fit into 316 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 95.0
If we take 265 away from 316, we end up with 51.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 513 / 53

Moving on to step 5:
53 goes into 513 9 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 959.0
Subtract 477 from 513 to get 36.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 361 / 53

Let's proceed to step 6:
53 goes into 361 6 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9596.0
Subtract 318 from 361 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
53 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9596.8
Subtracting 424 from 430 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9596.81
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 53 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 70 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9596.811
Subtracting 53 from 70 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 9596.811 and a remainder of 0.0017.
