We divide 589208 by 54
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 589208.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 54 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 54

Advancing to step 2:
The number 54 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 54 from 58, we get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 54

Step 3:
The number 54 fits into 49 0 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 492 / 54

Step 4:
492 divided by 54 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 109.0
If we take 486 away from 492, we end up with 6.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 60 / 54

Moving on to step 5:
The number 54 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1091.0
If we take 54 away from 60, we end up with 6.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 68 / 54

Let's proceed to step 6:
68 divided by 54 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10911.0
Deduct 54 from 68 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
54 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10911.2
If we subtract 108 from 140, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 8:
320 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10911.25
Deduct 270 from 320 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.

On to step 9:
54 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10911.259
Subtracting 486 from 500 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
54 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 10911.2592
If we subtract 108 from 140, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 320 by 54, we get 5 and a remainder of 50.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10911.25925
If we take 270 away from 320, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
54 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10911.259259
If we take 486 away from 500, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
54 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10911.2592592
If we take 108 away from 140, 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.

Step 14:
When dividing 320 by 54, we get 5 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10911.25925925
If we take 270 away from 320, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 10911.25925925, and the remainder is 5e-08.
