Let's divide 165236 by 54
We want to divide 165236 by 54.

On to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 54

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 16 leaves us with 16.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 165 / 54

Advancing to step 3:
54 can be fit into 165 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 162 away from 165, we end up with 3.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 54

Step 4:
When dividing 32 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 30.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 0 from 32.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 323 / 54

Step 5:
323 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 53.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 305.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 270 from 323.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 53, then repeat: 536 / 54

Step 6:
If we divide 536 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 50.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3059.0
If we subtract 486 from 536, we 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 500 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3059.9
If we subtract 486 from 500, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
140 divided by 54 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 3059.92
Subtract 108 from 140 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 54 fits into 320 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3059.925
Subtract 270 from 320 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.

Moving on to step 10:
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: 3059.9259
Subtract 486 from 500 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
140 divided by 54 is 2 with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3059.92592
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.

Advancing to step 12:
320 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3059.925925
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 270 from 320.
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 13:
500 divided by 54 is 9 with a remainder of 14.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3059.9259259
Subtract 486 from 500 to get 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 14:
54 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3059.92592592
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.

Our division results in 3059.92592592 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
