Let's divide 171211 by 54
We want to figure out the number of times 171211 can be divided by 54.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 54

Let's proceed to step 2:
54 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 171 / 54

Let's proceed to step 3:
54 goes into 171 3 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 162 away from 171, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 92 / 54

Moving on to step 4:
The number 54 fits into 92 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 54 from 92, we get 38.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 381 / 54

Step 5:
381 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 317.0
If we subtract 378 from 381, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 54

Moving on to step 6:
31 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3170.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 310 by 54, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3170.5
Deduct 270 from 310 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 400 by 54, we get 7 with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3170.57
Deduct 378 from 400 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 220 by 54, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3170.574
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 216 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 40 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3170.574
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
400 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3170.57407
Subtract 378 from 400 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 220 by 54, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3170.574074
Subtract 216 from 220 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
54 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3170.574074
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 400 by 54, we get 7 with a remainder of 22.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3170.57407407
If we subtract 378 from 400, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3170.57407407 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
