Let's divide 53281 by 16
We're looking to find how many times 16 goes into 53281.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 16, 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 subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 16

Step 2:
If we divide 53 by 16, we get 3 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 48 from 53, we get 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 16

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 52 by 16, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtracting 48 from 52 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 16

On to step 4:
When dividing 48 by 16, we get 3 with a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 333.0
If we take 48 away from 48, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 1 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3330.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 16 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3330.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 16 fits into 100 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3330.06
Subtracting 96 from 100 leaves us with 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 8:
The number 16 fits into 40 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3330.062
Deduct 32 from 40 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
80 divided by 16 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3330.0625
If we subtract 80 from 80, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3330.0625
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
16 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3330.0625
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 3330.0625, with a leftover of 0.0.
