We're dividing 53074257 by 996 
We're looking to find how many times 996 goes into 53074257.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 996 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 53 / 996

Advancing to step 2:
996 goes into 53 0 times with a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 530 / 996

Advancing to step 3:
The number 996 fits into 530 0 times, leaving a remainder of 530.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 530, we end up with 530.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 530 and continue: 5307 / 996

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 5307 by 996, we get 5 with a remainder of 327.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 4980 from 5307, we get 327.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 327 and continue: 3274 / 996

Step 5:
When dividing 3274 by 996, we get 3 with a remainder of 286.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53.0
Subtract 2988 from 3274 to get 286.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 286, then repeat: 2862 / 996

Going ahead to step 6:
996 can be fit into 2862 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 870.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 532.0
Deduct 1992 from 2862 and we're left with 870.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 870 and repeat the process: 8705 / 996

On to step 7:
996 goes into 8705 8 times with a remainder of 737.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5328.0
Subtract 7968 from 8705 to get 737.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 737, then carry on: 7377 / 996

Moving on to step 8:
996 goes into 7377 7 times with a remainder of 405.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 53287.0
Subtract 6972 from 7377 to get 405.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4050, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
4050 divided by 996 is 4 with a remainder of 66.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53287.4
The remainder is 66 after subtracting 3984 from 4050.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
660 divided by 996 is 0 with a remainder of 660.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53287.4
If we take 0 away from 660, we end up with 660.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
996 can be fit into 6600 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 624.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 53287.406
The remainder is 624 after subtracting 5976 from 6600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
996 goes into 6240 6 times with a remainder of 264.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 53287.4066
Subtract 5976 from 6240 to get 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 53287.4066 and a remainder of 0.00264.
