978310 divided by 53 
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 978310.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 53

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 97 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 44.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 53 from 97 leaves us with 44.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 448 / 53

Moving on to step 3:
53 goes into 448 8 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 424 from 448 to get 24.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 243 / 53

Step 4:
53 can be fit into 243 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 184.0
Subtract 212 from 243 to get 31.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 311 / 53

On to step 5:
When dividing 311 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 46.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1845.0
If we subtract 265 from 311, we get 46.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 460 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 460 by 53, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18458.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 424 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
53 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18458.6
If we subtract 318 from 360, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 420 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.67
If we subtract 371 from 420, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 9:
53 can be fit into 490 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.679
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 477 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 130 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.6792
Subtracting 106 from 130 leaves us 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.

Step 11:
53 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.67924
Subtracting 212 from 240 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 280 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.679245
Subtract 265 from 280 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 150 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18458.6792452
If we subtract 106 from 150, we 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 53 fits into 440 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18458.67924528
If we take 424 away from 440, 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.

Our division results in 18458.67924528 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
