We're dividing 855488 by 54 
We want to divide 855488 by 54.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 54 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 54

Step 2:
54 goes into 85 1 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 54 from 85 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 315 / 54

Step 3:
315 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 270 from 315 to get 45.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 454 / 54

On to step 4:
If we divide 454 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 22.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 158.0
Subtracting 432 from 454 leaves us with 22.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 22, then repeat: 228 / 54

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 228 by 54, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1584.0
Subtracting 216 from 228 leaves us with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 54

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 128 by 54, we get 2 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15842.0
Deduct 108 from 128 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 200 by 54, we get 3 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15842.3
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 162 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
54 can be fit into 380 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15842.37
Subtracting 378 from 380 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 20 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15842.37
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
The number 54 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15842.3703
If we take 162 away from 200, 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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 380 by 54, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15842.37037
If we subtract 378 from 380, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
54 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15842.37037
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
200 divided by 54 is 3 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 15842.3703703
Subtract 162 from 200 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
380 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 2.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15842.37037037
If we subtract 378 from 380, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 15842.37037037 and a remainder of 2e-09.
