We divide 539878 by 11
We want to divide 539878 by 11.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 11, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 11

Let's proceed to step 2:
11 can be fit into 53 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 44 from 53, we get 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 11

Advancing to step 3:
11 goes into 99 9 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 99 from 99 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 11

Step 4:
The number 11 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 490.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 11

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 87 by 11, we get 7 and a remainder of 10.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4907.0
Subtract 77 from 87 to get 10.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 108 / 11

Moving on to step 6:
11 can be fit into 108 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49079.0
If we subtract 99 from 108, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 7:
90 divided by 11 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49079.8
Deduct 88 from 90 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
20 divided by 11 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49079.81
Subtracting 11 from 20 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
11 goes into 90 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49079.818
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 88 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
11 can be fit into 20 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49079.8181
Subtracting 11 from 20 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 11:
11 goes into 90 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49079.81818
If we take 88 away from 90, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 11, we get 1 and a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49079.818181
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 11 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
11 can be fit into 90 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 49079.8181818
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 88 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 11 fits into 20 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49079.81818181
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 11 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 49079.81818181 with a balance of 9e-09.
