357431 divided by 53 
We want to divide 357431 by 53.

Advancing to step 1:
3 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
35 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 0 from 35.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 357 / 53

On to step 3:
357 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 39.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 318 from 357 to get 39.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 394 / 53

Step 4:
When dividing 394 by 53, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we subtract 371 from 394, we get 23.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 53

Step 5:
The number 53 fits into 233 4 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 674.0
Deduct 212 from 233 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 211 / 53

Step 6:
The number 53 fits into 211 3 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6743.0
Deduct 159 from 211 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 7:
53 can be fit into 520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6743.9
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 477 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
53 goes into 430 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6743.98
Subtract 424 from 430 to 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.

On to step 9:
60 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6743.981
Subtracting 53 from 60 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
53 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6743.9811
Subtracting 53 from 70 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final result is 6743.9811 with a remainder of 0.00017.
