We're dividing 870899 by 52 
Let's see how many times 52 fits into 870899.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
52 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 52 from 87 leaves us with 35.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 350 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
52 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 312 from 350.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 388 / 52

Moving on to step 4:
52 can be fit into 388 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 167.0
Subtract 364 from 388 to get 24.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 249 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 52 fits into 249 4 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1674.0
Subtracting 208 from 249 leaves us with 41.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 419 / 52

Let's proceed to step 6:
419 divided by 52 is 8 with a remainder of 3.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16748.0
If we subtract 416 from 419, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
52 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16748.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 52, we get 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16748.05
Deduct 260 from 300 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
400 divided by 52 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16748.057
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 364 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
360 divided by 52 is 6 with a remainder of 48.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16748.0576
Subtract 312 from 360 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Step 11:
52 goes into 480 9 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16748.05769
Subtracting 468 from 480 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
52 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16748.057692
If we take 104 away from 120, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
52 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16748.0576923
Subtract 156 from 160 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 40 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16748.0576923
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.

The final result is 16748.0576923 with a remainder of 4e-08.
