We look at the division of 145604 by 54 
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 145604.

Going ahead to step 1:
54 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 54

On to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 145 / 54

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 145 by 54, we get 2 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 108 away from 145, we end up with 37.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 376 / 54

Step 4:
If we divide 376 by 54, we get 6 and a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26.0
If we subtract 324 from 376, we get 52.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 52 and repeat the process: 520 / 54

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 520 by 54, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 269.0
Deduct 486 from 520 and we're left with 34.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 344 / 54

On to step 6:
When dividing 344 by 54, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2696.0
If we subtract 324 from 344, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
54 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2696.3
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 162 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 380 by 54, we get 7 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2696.37
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2696.37
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 54, we get 3 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2696.3703
Subtracting 162 from 200 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 380 by 54, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2696.37037
Deduct 378 from 380 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 12:
54 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2696.37037
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
54 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2696.3703703
If we subtract 162 from 200, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
54 goes into 380 7 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2696.37037037
If we take 378 away from 380, 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.

The final result is 2696.37037037 with a remainder of 2e-09.
