We're dividing 989420 by 52 
We want to figure out the number of times 989420 can be divided by 52.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 52 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
52 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 52 from 98 to get 46.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 469 / 52

Step 3:
The number 52 fits into 469 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we take 468 away from 469, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 14 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 190.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 142 / 52

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 142 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1902.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 104 from 142.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 380 / 52

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 380 by 52, we get 7 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 19027.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 364 from 380.
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 7:
52 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19027.3
If we subtract 156 from 160, we 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 40 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19027.3
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 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:
The number 52 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19027.307
Deduct 364 from 400 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
52 can be fit into 360 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19027.3076
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 312 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
52 can be fit into 480 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19027.30769
Subtract 468 from 480 to get 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:
120 divided by 52 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19027.307692
Subtract 104 from 120 to get 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 next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 19027.3076923
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 52 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19027.3076923
If we subtract 0 from 40, we 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.

Our division results in 19027.3076923 with a remaining 4e-08.
