We look at the division of 252046 by 16 
Our goal is to divide 252046 by 16.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 16 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 16

Step 2:
When dividing 25 by 16, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 16 from 25, we get 9.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 92 / 16

Step 3:
If we divide 92 by 16, we get 5 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Deduct 80 from 92 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 120 / 16

On to step 4:
120 divided by 16 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 157.0
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 16

Moving on to step 5:
84 divided by 16 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1575.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 80 from 84.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 16

Step 6:
When dividing 46 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15752.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 32 from 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
16 goes into 140 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 15752.8
If we subtract 128 from 140, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
120 divided by 16 is 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15752.87
If we subtract 112 from 120, we get 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.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15752.875
Subtracting 80 from 80 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15752.875
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
0 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15752.875
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 15752.875 with a balance of 0.0.
