16931 divided by 53 
We want to divide 16931 by 53.

On to step 1:
53 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
16 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 53

Step 3:
If we divide 169 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 159 from 169 to get 10.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 103 / 53

Step 4:
When dividing 103 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 31.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 53 from 103.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 501 / 53

On to step 5:
53 goes into 501 9 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 319.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 477 from 501.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
If we divide 240 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319.4
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 212 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 280 by 53, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 319.45
If we take 265 away from 280, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
150 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 319.452
Subtracting 106 from 150 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
53 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319.4528
Subtracting 424 from 440 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 319.45283
Subtract 159 from 160 to 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.

On to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319.45283
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
100 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 47.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319.4528301
Subtracting 53 from 100 leaves us 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:
53 can be fit into 470 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 319.45283018
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.

The final result is 319.45283018 with a remainder of 4.6e-08.
