Let's divide 617229 by 52
Our goal is to divide 617229 by 52.

On to step 1:
When dividing 6 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 61 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 61 by 52, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 52 away from 61, we end up with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
The number 52 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 52 from 97 and we're left with 45.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 452 / 52

Step 4:
If we divide 452 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 118.0
Subtracting 416 from 452 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 362 / 52

On to step 5:
52 can be fit into 362 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1186.0
If we take 312 away from 362, we end up with 50.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 509 / 52

Step 6:
52 goes into 509 9 times with a remainder of 41.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11869.0
If we take 468 away from 509, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
52 goes into 410 7 times with a remainder of 46.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11869.7
Subtract 364 from 410 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 8:
52 can be fit into 460 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11869.78
Subtracting 416 from 460 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:
52 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11869.788
Subtracting 416 from 440 leaves us 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.

The quotient of the division is 11869.788, and the remainder is 0.0024.
