608489 ÷ 53 
We want to divide 608489 by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
53 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 60 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
53 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 53 away from 60, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 78 / 53

On to step 3:
If we divide 78 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 25.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 53 from 78, we get 25.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 254 / 53

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 254 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 114.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 212 from 254.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 428 / 53

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 428 by 53, we get 8 and a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1148.0
Subtracting 424 from 428 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 53

Moving on to step 6:
53 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11480.0
Subtracting 0 from 49 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 490 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11480.9
If we take 477 away from 490, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
53 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11480.92
Deduct 106 from 130 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 9:
53 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11480.924
If we take 212 away from 240, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
53 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11480.9245
If we subtract 265 from 280, we 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.

Step 11:
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: 11480.92452
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 106 from 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
53 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11480.924528
Subtracting 424 from 440 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11480.9245283
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
10 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11480.9245283
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11480.9245283 with a remaining 1e-08.
