304873 divided by 52 
We want to divide 304873 by 52.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 30 / 52

Going ahead to step 2:
52 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 304 / 52

On to step 3:
52 goes into 304 5 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 260 from 304 and we're left with 44.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 448 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 52 fits into 448 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 416 from 448 leaves us with 32.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 327 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 52 fits into 327 6 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 586.0
If we subtract 312 from 327, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 153 / 52

Step 6:
The number 52 fits into 153 2 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5862.0
Deduct 104 from 153 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
52 can be fit into 490 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5862.9
Subtracting 468 from 490 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
220 divided by 52 is 4 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5862.94
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 208 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
52 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5862.942
Subtracting 104 from 120 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.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.9423
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 52 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5862.9423
Subtract 0 from 40 to 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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 400 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.942307
If we take 364 away from 400, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
52 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5862.9423076
If we subtract 312 from 360, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
480 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5862.94230769
Deduct 468 from 480 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5862.94230769, with a leftover of 1.2e-08.
