We're dividing 52942169 by 316 
We want to divide 52942169 by 316.

On to step 1:
The number 316 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 316

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 52 by 316, we get 0 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 52 and we're left with 52.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 52 and continue: 529 / 316

Step 3:
The number 316 fits into 529 1 times, leaving a remainder of 213.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 316 from 529 to get 213.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 213, then repeat: 2134 / 316

Step 4:
316 can be fit into 2134 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 238.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 238 after subtracting 1896 from 2134.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 238 and continue with: 2382 / 316

Let's proceed to step 5:
316 can be fit into 2382 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 170.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 167.0
Deduct 2212 from 2382 and we're left with 170.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 170 and continue: 1701 / 316

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 316 fits into 1701 5 times, leaving a remainder of 121.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1675.0
The remainder is 121 after subtracting 1580 from 1701.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 121, then repeat: 1216 / 316

Step 7:
If we divide 1216 by 316, we get 3 and a remainder of 268.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16753.0
Subtracting 948 from 1216 leaves us with 268.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 268, then repeat: 2689 / 316

On to step 8:
The number 316 fits into 2689 8 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167538.0
Subtracting 2528 from 2689 leaves us with 161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1610, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 316 fits into 1610 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 167538.5
Subtracting 1580 from 1610 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 300 by 316, we get 0 and a remainder of 300.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167538.5
Deduct 0 from 300 and we're left with 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
316 goes into 3000 9 times with a remainder of 156.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167538.509
Subtract 2844 from 3000 to get 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

Step 12:
316 goes into 1560 4 times with a remainder of 296.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 167538.5094
If we take 1264 away from 1560, we end up with 296.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2960, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 2960 by 316, we get 9 with a remainder of 116.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 167538.50949
Deduct 2844 from 2960 and we're left with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 1160 by 316, we get 3 with a remainder of 212.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167538.509493
Deduct 948 from 1160 and we're left with 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
316 can be fit into 2120 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 224.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167538.5094936
If we subtract 1896 from 2120, we get 224.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
When dividing 2240 by 316, we get 7 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 167538.50949367
If we take 2212 away from 2240, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 167538.50949367, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
