Let's divide 98690 by 53
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 98690.

Moving on to step 1:
9 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 53

On to step 2:
98 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 53 from 98.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 456 / 53

Going ahead to step 3:
456 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 424 from 456, we get 32.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 329 / 53

On to step 4:
329 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 186.0
Deduct 318 from 329 and we're left with 11.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 110 / 53

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 110 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1862.0
Subtracting 106 from 110 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
53 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1862.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to 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.

Moving on to step 7:
400 divided by 53 is 7 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1862.07
Subtracting 371 from 400 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
53 goes into 290 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1862.075
If we take 265 away from 290, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 53 fits into 250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1862.0754
Subtracting 212 from 250 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
The number 53 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1862.07547
If we subtract 371 from 380, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
53 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1862.075471
If we subtract 53 from 90, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 370 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1862.0754716
Deduct 318 from 370 and we're left with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 520 by 53, we get 9 and a remainder of 43.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1862.07547169
If we take 477 away from 520, we end up with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Our division results in 1862.07547169 with a remaining 4.3e-08.
