We look at the division of 52870 by 60 
Our goal is to divide 52870 by 60.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 60 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 52 / 60

On to step 2:
60 can be fit into 52 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 52 to get 52.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 52, then carry on: 528 / 60

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 528 by 60, we get 8 and a remainder of 48.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 480 from 528 to get 48.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 487 / 60

On to step 4:
487 divided by 60 is 8 with a remainder of 7.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 88.0
Subtract 480 from 487 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 70 / 60

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 70 by 60, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 881.0
If we subtract 60 from 70, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 6:
60 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 881.1
Subtracting 60 from 100 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
60 can be fit into 400 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 881.16
If we subtract 360 from 400, we 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 8:
60 can be fit into 400 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 881.166
If we take 360 away from 400, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 881.166 and a remainder of 0.004.
