We look at the division of 54572132 by 972 
Let's see how many times 972 fits into 54572132.

Step 1:
972 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 972

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 54 by 972, we get 0 and a remainder of 54.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 54 and we're left with 54.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 545 / 972

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 545 by 972, we get 0 and a remainder of 545.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 545 and we're left with 545.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 545, then repeat: 5457 / 972

Going ahead to step 4:
972 goes into 5457 5 times with a remainder of 597.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 597 after subtracting 4860 from 5457.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 597, then carry on: 5972 / 972

On to step 5:
972 goes into 5972 6 times with a remainder of 140.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56.0
If we take 5832 away from 5972, we end up with 140.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 140 and continue with: 1401 / 972

Going ahead to step 6:
1401 divided by 972 is 1 with a remainder of 429.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 561.0
Deduct 972 from 1401 and we're left with 429.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 429, then repeat: 4293 / 972

On to step 7:
The number 972 fits into 4293 4 times, leaving a remainder of 405.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5614.0
Subtracting 3888 from 4293 leaves us with 405.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 405 and continue with: 4052 / 972

Step 8:
When dividing 4052 by 972, we get 4 with a remainder of 164.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56144.0
The remainder is 164 after subtracting 3888 from 4052.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
972 goes into 1640 1 times with a remainder of 668.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56144.1
If we take 972 away from 1640, we end up with 668.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 972 fits into 6680 6 times, leaving a remainder of 848.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 56144.16
Deduct 5832 from 6680 and we're left with 848.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8480, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
972 goes into 8480 8 times with a remainder of 704.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56144.168
If we take 7776 away from 8480, we end up with 704.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7040, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 7040 by 972, we get 7 with a remainder of 236.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 56144.1687
If we take 6804 away from 7040, we end up with 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
972 goes into 2360 2 times with a remainder of 416.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56144.16872
The remainder is 416 after subtracting 1944 from 2360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
972 can be fit into 4160 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 272.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56144.168724
Subtracting 3888 from 4160 leaves us with 272.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 972 fits into 2720 2 times, leaving a remainder of 776.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56144.1687242
The remainder is 776 after subtracting 1944 from 2720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
When dividing 7760 by 972, we get 7 with a remainder of 956.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56144.16872427
Subtract 6804 from 7760 to get 956.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9560, and continue the process.

The final result is 56144.16872427 with a remainder of 9.56e-07.
