We divide 979604 by 54
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 979604.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 54

Step 2:
When dividing 97 by 54, we get 1 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 54 from 97 and we're left with 43.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 439 / 54

Let's proceed to step 3:
54 can be fit into 439 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 432 from 439.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 76 / 54

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 76 by 54, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 181.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 54 from 76.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 220 / 54

Step 5:
When dividing 220 by 54, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1814.0
If we take 216 away from 220, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 54

Step 6:
If we divide 44 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 44.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18140.0
If we subtract 0 from 44, we 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.

Moving on to step 7:
54 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18140.8
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 432 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
80 divided by 54 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18140.81
Subtracting 54 from 80 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
260 divided by 54 is 4 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18140.814
If we subtract 216 from 260, we 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 10:
If we divide 440 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18140.8148
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
54 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18140.81481
If we subtract 54 from 80, we get 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 12:
260 divided by 54 is 4 with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18140.814814
If we take 216 away from 260, 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 440 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18140.8148148
Subtracting 432 from 440 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 14:
The number 54 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18140.81481481
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.

The final result is 18140.81481481 with a remainder of 2.6e-08.
