We divide 579878 by 52
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 579878.

Let's proceed to step 1:
52 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 52

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 57 by 52, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 52 away from 57, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 59 / 52

Advancing to step 3:
The number 52 fits into 59 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 52 from 59 and we're left with 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
52 can be fit into 78 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 111.0
Deduct 52 from 78 and we're left with 26.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 267 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
267 divided by 52 is 5 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1115.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 260 from 267.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 78 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
78 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11151.0
Deduct 52 from 78 and we're left 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 7:
If we divide 260 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11151.5
Subtract 260 from 260 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11151.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
0 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 11151.5
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11151.5 and a remainder of 0.0.
