Let's divide 642017 by 53
We want to figure out the number of times 642017 can be divided by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
6 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 53

Let's proceed to step 2:
64 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 53 away from 64, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 112 / 53

Step 3:
The number 53 fits into 112 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 106 away from 112, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 60 / 53

Advancing to step 4:
53 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 121.0
If we take 53 away from 60, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 53

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 71 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1211.0
Subtracting 53 from 71 leaves us with 18.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 187 / 53

Going ahead to step 6:
187 divided by 53 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12113.0
If we subtract 159 from 187, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
280 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 12113.5
Subtract 265 from 280 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 150 by 53, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12113.52
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 106 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 440 by 53, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12113.528
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 424 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12113.5283
If we subtract 159 from 160, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12113.5283
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
53 can be fit into 100 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12113.528301
If we take 53 away from 100, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 53 fits into 470 8 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12113.5283018
If we take 424 away from 470, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
460 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12113.52830188
If we subtract 424 from 460, 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.

The quotient of the division is 12113.52830188, and the remainder is 3.6e-08.
