We divide 54038840 by 511
We want to divide 54038840 by 511.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 511, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 511

Let's proceed to step 2:
511 goes into 54 0 times with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 54, we get 54.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 54 and repeat the process: 540 / 511

Step 3:
When dividing 540 by 511, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 511 from 540, we get 29.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 293 / 511

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 293 by 511, we get 0 with a remainder of 293.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 293 after subtracting 0 from 293.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 293, then carry on: 2938 / 511

Advancing to step 5:
511 goes into 2938 5 times with a remainder of 383.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 105.0
Deduct 2555 from 2938 and we're left with 383.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 383 and continue with: 3838 / 511

Moving on to step 6:
The number 511 fits into 3838 7 times, leaving a remainder of 261.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1057.0
Deduct 3577 from 3838 and we're left with 261.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 261 and repeat the process: 2614 / 511

Step 7:
If we divide 2614 by 511, we get 5 and a remainder of 59.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10575.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 2555 from 2614.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 590 / 511

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 590 by 511, we get 1 and a remainder of 79.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 105751.0
Subtracting 511 from 590 leaves us with 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 790 by 511, we get 1 and a remainder of 279.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 105751.1
If we take 511 away from 790, we end up with 279.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2790, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 511 fits into 2790 5 times, leaving a remainder of 235.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 105751.15
If we take 2555 away from 2790, we end up with 235.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2350, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 2350 by 511, we get 4 and a remainder of 306.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 105751.154
If we subtract 2044 from 2350, we get 306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 3060 by 511, we get 5 with a remainder of 505.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 105751.1545
The remainder is 505 after subtracting 2555 from 3060.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5050, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
511 can be fit into 5050 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 451.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 105751.15459
Subtract 4599 from 5050 to get 451.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
511 goes into 4510 8 times with a remainder of 422.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 105751.154598
Subtract 4088 from 4510 to get 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 4220 by 511, we get 8 and a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 105751.1545988
If we take 4088 away from 4220, we end up with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

The final result is 105751.1545988 with a remainder of 1.32e-06.
