We divide 871384 by 53
We want to divide 871384 by 53.

Moving on to step 1:
53 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 53

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 53 away from 87, we end up with 34.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 341 / 53

On to step 3:
341 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 23.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 318 from 341.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 233 / 53

On to step 4:
53 goes into 233 4 times with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 164.0
Deduct 212 from 233 and we're left with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 53

On to step 5:
The number 53 fits into 218 4 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1644.0
If we take 212 away from 218, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
53 goes into 64 1 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16441.0
If we take 53 away from 64, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
110 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 16441.2
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 106 from 110.
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 8:
53 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: 16441.2
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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 53, we get 7 with a remainder of 29.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16441.207
Deduct 371 from 400 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 290 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16441.2075
Deduct 265 from 290 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
53 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16441.20754
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 212 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
380 divided by 53 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16441.207547
If we subtract 371 from 380, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 13:
90 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16441.2075471
Subtract 53 from 90 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 53 fits into 370 6 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16441.20754716
Subtract 318 from 370 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Our division results in 16441.20754716 with a remaining 5.2e-08.
