Let's divide 24831 by 53
Let's see how many times 53 fits into 24831.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 24 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
24 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 248 / 53

On to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 248 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 212 from 248, we get 36.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 363 / 53

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 53 fits into 363 6 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 46.0
Deduct 318 from 363 and we're left with 45.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 451 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 goes into 451 8 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 468.0
If we take 424 away from 451, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
270 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 468.5
If we subtract 265 from 270, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
50 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 468.5
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
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: 468.509
If we subtract 477 from 500, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
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: 468.5094
Subtract 212 from 230 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 53 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 468.50943
Subtracting 159 from 180 leaves us with 21.
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 11:
If we divide 210 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 468.509433
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 159 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

Our division results in 468.509433 with a remaining 5.1e-06.
