171797 ÷ 53 
We want to divide 171797 by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 53 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
17 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 171 / 53

Step 3:
If we divide 171 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 12.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 159 from 171 to get 12.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 127 / 53

On to step 4:
127 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 21.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtract 106 from 127 to get 21.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 219 / 53

Step 5:
53 goes into 219 4 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 324.0
Subtract 212 from 219 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 77 / 53

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 77 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3241.0
If we take 53 away from 77, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
240 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3241.4
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 212 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
53 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3241.45
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 265 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 150 by 53, we get 2 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3241.452
Subtract 106 from 150 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
53 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3241.4528
Deduct 424 from 440 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
53 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3241.45283
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 159 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 12:
10 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3241.45283
If we subtract 0 from 10, 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.

On to step 13:
The number 53 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3241.4528301
Subtract 53 from 100 to get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 470 by 53, we get 8 with a remainder of 46.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3241.45283018
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 424 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3241.45283018, and the remainder is 4.6e-08.
