We look at the division of 129696 by 54 
We want to divide 129696 by 54.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 54 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 54

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 12 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 129 / 54

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 54 fits into 129 2 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 108 from 129, we get 21.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 216 / 54

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 216 by 54, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 216 from 216 and we're left with 0.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 9 / 54

Step 5:
54 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 240.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 96 / 54

On to step 6:
96 divided by 54 is 1 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2401.0
Subtract 54 from 96 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 420 by 54, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2401.7
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 378 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 420 by 54, we get 7 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2401.77
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 378 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2401.77 with a remaining 0.042.
