We're dividing 53707 by 44 
We want to figure out the number of times 53707 can be divided by 44.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 44, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 44

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 53 by 44, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 44 away from 53, we end up with 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 44

Step 3:
97 divided by 44 is 2 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 88 away from 97, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 90 / 44

On to step 4:
44 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 122.0
Deduct 88 from 90 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 44

Moving on to step 5:
27 divided by 44 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1220.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 0 from 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
44 goes into 270 6 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1220.6
If we subtract 264 from 270, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 44 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1220.61
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 44 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
160 divided by 44 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1220.613
Deduct 132 from 160 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 44 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1220.6136
If we subtract 264 from 280, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 44, we get 3 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1220.61363
Subtracting 132 from 160 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 280 by 44, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1220.613636
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 160 by 44, we get 3 and a remainder of 28.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1220.6136363
Subtracting 132 from 160 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 280 by 44, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1220.61363636
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1220.61363636 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
