Let's divide 172436 by 53
Let's see how many times 53 fits into 172436.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 53

Let's proceed to step 2:
53 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 172 / 53

Advancing to step 3:
53 can be fit into 172 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 159 from 172, we get 13.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 134 / 53

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 134 by 53, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
If we take 106 away from 134, we end up with 28.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 283 / 53

On to step 5:
If we divide 283 by 53, we get 5 and a remainder of 18.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 325.0
Deduct 265 from 283 and we're left with 18.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 186 / 53

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 186 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 27.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3253.0
If we subtract 159 from 186, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
53 goes into 270 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3253.5
If we take 265 away from 270, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 50 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3253.5
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 500 by 53, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 3253.509
If we take 477 away from 500, we end up 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.

Step 10:
53 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3253.5094
Deduct 212 from 230 and we're left 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:
53 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3253.50943
Subtract 159 from 180 to 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.

Moving on to step 12:
53 goes into 210 3 times with a remainder of 51.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3253.509433
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 3253.509433 with a remaining 5.1e-06.
