870372 ÷ 52 
We want to divide 870372 by 52.

On to step 1:
8 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
The number 52 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 52 from 87.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 350 / 52

On to step 3:
The number 52 fits into 350 6 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we take 312 away from 350, we end up with 38.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 383 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 383 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 19.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167.0
Deduct 364 from 383 and we're left with 19.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 19 and repeat the process: 197 / 52

Step 5:
When dividing 197 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 41.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1673.0
If we take 156 away from 197, we end up with 41.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 412 / 52

On to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 412 7 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16737.0
If we subtract 364 from 412, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
480 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16737.9
If we take 468 away from 480, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
120 divided by 52 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16737.92
If we subtract 104 from 120, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 52 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16737.923
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.

Advancing to step 10:
52 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16737.923
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
52 goes into 400 7 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16737.92307
Deduct 364 from 400 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 360 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16737.923076
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 13:
480 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16737.9230769
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.

Step 14:
The number 52 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16737.92307692
Deduct 104 from 120 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 16737.92307692 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
