We divide 523204 by 2
We want to divide 523204 by 2.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 2 is 2 with a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 2

Let's proceed to step 2:
2 can be fit into 12 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 3 / 2

On to step 3:
When dividing 3 by 2, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 261.0
If we take 2 away from 3, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 12 / 2

Let's proceed to step 4:
12 divided by 2 is 6 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2616.0
Deduct 12 from 12 and we're left with 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 2

On to step 5:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26160.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 2

Step 6:
2 can be fit into 4 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 261602.0
If we subtract 4 from 4, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 261602.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 261602.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 261602.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
