Let's divide 880940 by 53
We want to figure out the number of times 880940 can be divided by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
8 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 88 / 53

Let's proceed to step 2:
53 goes into 88 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 53 from 88, we get 35.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 350 / 53

On to step 3:
When dividing 350 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 318 from 350.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 329 / 53

On to step 4:
53 can be fit into 329 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 166.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 318 from 329.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 114 / 53

Step 5:
53 can be fit into 114 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1662.0
Subtracting 106 from 114 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 80 / 53

On to step 6:
53 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16621.0
If we subtract 53 from 80, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 270 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16621.5
Deduct 265 from 270 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 50 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 16621.5
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16621.509
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 477 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
53 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 16621.5094
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 212 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
53 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16621.50943
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 159 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
53 can be fit into 210 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16621.509433
If we take 159 away from 210, we end up with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 16621.509433 and a remainder of 5.1e-06.
