We divide 52261601 by 53
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 52261601.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 53

Step 2:
53 goes into 52 0 times with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 0 from 52.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 522 / 53

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 522 9 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 477 from 522 leaves us with 45.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 456 / 53

Step 4:
The number 53 fits into 456 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 98.0
Deduct 424 from 456 and we're left with 32.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 321 / 53

On to step 5:
53 goes into 321 6 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 986.0
If we subtract 318 from 321, we get 3.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 36 / 53

Moving on to step 6:
53 can be fit into 36 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9860.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 360 / 53

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 98606.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 318 from 360.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 421 / 53

Going ahead to step 8:
421 divided by 53 is 7 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 986067.0
Deduct 371 from 421 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 986067.9
Subtracting 477 from 500 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
230 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 986067.94
If we take 212 away from 230, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 986067.943
If we subtract 159 from 180, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
210 divided by 53 is 3 with a remainder of 51.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 986067.9433
If we subtract 159 from 210, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Our division results in 986067.9433 with a remaining 0.00051.
