We're dividing 52096 by 18 
Our goal is to divide 52096 by 18.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 18, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 18

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 52 by 18, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 36 from 52 and we're left with 16.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 160 / 18

Step 3:
The number 18 fits into 160 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 169 / 18

Let's proceed to step 4:
169 divided by 18 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 289.0
Deduct 162 from 169 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 18

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 76 by 18, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2894.0
If we subtract 72 from 76, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
18 goes into 40 2 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2894.2
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 36 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 18 fits into 40 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2894.22
If we subtract 36 from 40, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 2894.22 with a remainder of 0.004.
