We divide 144486 by 52
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 144486.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
52 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 144 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
52 can be fit into 144 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 104 from 144.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 52

On to step 4:
52 goes into 404 7 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 364 from 404 to get 40.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 408 / 52

Step 5:
The number 52 fits into 408 7 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 277.0
If we subtract 364 from 408, we get 44.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 446 / 52

Advancing to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 446 8 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2778.0
Subtracting 416 from 446 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
52 can be fit into 300 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2778.5
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 260 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 400 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2778.57
Subtract 364 from 400 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 52, we get 6 and a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2778.576
Deduct 312 from 360 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
52 goes into 480 9 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2778.5769
Deduct 468 from 480 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2778.57692
If we take 104 away from 120, 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2778.576923
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
40 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2778.576923
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
400 divided by 52 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2778.57692307
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 364 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 2778.57692307 and a remainder of 3.6e-08.
