258599 ÷ 52 
Our goal is to divide 258599 by 52.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 25 / 52

On to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 258 / 52

On to step 3:
52 goes into 258 4 times with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 208 from 258 leaves us with 50.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 505 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
52 can be fit into 505 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 468 away from 505, we end up with 37.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 379 / 52

On to step 5:
52 goes into 379 7 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 497.0
If we take 364 away from 379, we end up with 15.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 159 / 52

On to step 6:
When dividing 159 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4973.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 156 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 52 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4973.0
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 52, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4973.05
Subtracting 260 from 300 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 52, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4973.057
If we subtract 364 from 400, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
52 can be fit into 360 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4973.0576
If we take 312 away from 360, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 480 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4973.05769
Subtract 468 from 480 to 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 120 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4973.057692
Subtract 104 from 120 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 160 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4973.0576923
If we take 156 away from 160, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4973.0576923
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 4973.0576923, and the remainder is 4e-08.
