We look at the division of 252738 by 52 
We want to divide 252738 by 52.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 52 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
52 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 252 / 52

On to step 3:
52 can be fit into 252 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 208 away from 252, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 447 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 52 fits into 447 8 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48.0
If we take 416 away from 447, we end up with 31.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 313 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 52 fits into 313 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 486.0
Deduct 312 from 313 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 18 / 52

Let's proceed to step 6:
18 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4860.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
52 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4860.3
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
52 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4860.34
Deduct 208 from 240 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
52 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4860.346
Subtracting 312 from 320 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
52 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4860.3461
Deduct 52 from 80 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4860.34615
If we take 260 away from 280, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
200 divided by 52 is 3 with a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4860.346153
Deduct 156 from 200 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
440 divided by 52 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4860.3461538
Deduct 416 from 440 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 52 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4860.34615384
Subtracting 208 from 240 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4860.34615384, and the remainder is 3.2e-08.
