We're dividing 188472 by 53 
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 188472.

On to step 1:
53 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
53 goes into 18 0 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 18 leaves us with 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 53

On to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 188 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 159 from 188 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 294 / 53

Going ahead to step 4:
53 can be fit into 294 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtracting 265 from 294 leaves us with 29.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 297 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 297 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 32.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 355.0
If we subtract 265 from 297, we get 32.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 322 / 53

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 322 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3556.0
Subtract 318 from 322 to get 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 7:
40 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3556.0
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 400 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 29.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3556.07
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 371 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 can be fit into 290 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3556.075
If we take 265 away from 290, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 10:
53 goes into 250 4 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3556.0754
Subtract 212 from 250 to 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 53 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3556.07547
Deduct 371 from 380 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 53 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3556.075471
If we subtract 53 from 90, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 53 fits into 370 6 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3556.0754716
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 318 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 520 by 53, we get 9 and a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3556.07547169
Subtracting 477 from 520 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3556.07547169, and the remainder is 4.3e-08.
