591872 ÷ 52 
We want to figure out the number of times 591872 can be divided by 52.

On to step 1:
The number 52 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 59 by 52, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 52 from 59 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 71 / 52

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 71 by 52, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 52 from 71 leaves us with 19.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 198 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
198 divided by 52 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 113.0
If we subtract 156 from 198, we get 42.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 427 / 52

On to step 5:
When dividing 427 by 52, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1138.0
If we subtract 416 from 427, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 112 / 52

Step 6:
112 divided by 52 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11382.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 104 from 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 52 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11382.1
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 52 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11382.15
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 260 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11382.153
Subtracting 156 from 200 leaves us with 44.
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 10:
440 divided by 52 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11382.1538
Deduct 416 from 440 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 11382.15384
If we take 208 away from 240, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 52, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11382.153846
If we subtract 312 from 320, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
52 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11382.1538461
Subtract 52 from 80 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 14:
52 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11382.15384615
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 260 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11382.15384615 with a remaining 2e-08.
