We look at the division of 146438 by 53 
Let's see how many times 53 fits into 146438.

Step 1:
53 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
53 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 14, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 146 / 53

Step 3:
146 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 106 away from 146, we end up with 40.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 53

Going ahead to step 4:
53 can be fit into 404 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 371 from 404.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 333 / 53

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 333 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 276.0
If we subtract 318 from 333, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 158 / 53

Step 6:
If we divide 158 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2762.0
If we subtract 106 from 158, we get 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 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2762.9
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:
When dividing 430 by 53, we get 8 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2762.98
Deduct 424 from 430 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 53 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2762.981
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.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 53 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2762.9811
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 53 from 70.
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 2762.9811 with a remainder of 0.00017.
