We divide 31096 by 53
We want to divide 31096 by 53.

On to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 31 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 31 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 31 to get 31.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 310 / 53

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 310 by 53, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 265 from 310 and we're left with 45.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 459 / 53

On to step 4:
53 goes into 459 8 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
If we take 424 away from 459, we end up with 35.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 356 / 53

Moving on to step 5:
53 goes into 356 6 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 586.0
If we take 318 away from 356, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 6:
53 goes into 380 7 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 586.7
If we subtract 371 from 380, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
53 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 586.71
Subtract 53 from 90 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
53 can be fit into 370 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 586.716
If we take 318 away from 370, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
53 can be fit into 520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 586.7169
If we subtract 477 from 520, we get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 10:
430 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 586.71698
If we take 424 away from 430, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
53 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 586.716981
Subtract 53 from 60 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 586.7169811
Subtracting 53 from 70 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 586.7169811, with a leftover of 1.7e-07.
