We're dividing 52696039 by 216 
We want to divide 52696039 by 216.

Advancing to step 1:
216 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 216

On to step 2:
216 can be fit into 52 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 526 / 216

Going ahead to step 3:
526 divided by 216 is 2 with a remainder of 94.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 432 away from 526, we end up with 94.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 94 and continue with: 949 / 216

Moving on to step 4:
The number 216 fits into 949 4 times, leaving a remainder of 85.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 864 from 949 leaves us with 85.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 85, then carry on: 856 / 216

Moving on to step 5:
216 goes into 856 3 times with a remainder of 208.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 243.0
Deduct 648 from 856 and we're left with 208.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 208 and continue with: 2080 / 216

On to step 6:
216 goes into 2080 9 times with a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2439.0
Subtracting 1944 from 2080 leaves us with 136.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 136, then repeat: 1363 / 216

Step 7:
216 goes into 1363 6 times with a remainder of 67.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24396.0
Subtracting 1296 from 1363 leaves us with 67.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 67, then repeat: 679 / 216

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 679 by 216, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 243963.0
If we take 648 away from 679, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
216 goes into 310 1 times with a remainder of 94.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 243963.1
Subtracting 216 from 310 leaves us with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 216 fits into 940 4 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 243963.14
If we subtract 864 from 940, we get 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 760 by 216, we get 3 and a remainder of 112.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 243963.143
Subtract 648 from 760 to get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 216 fits into 1120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 243963.1435
If we take 1080 away from 1120, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 216 fits into 400 1 times, leaving a remainder of 184.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 243963.14351
If we take 216 away from 400, we end up with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

Step 14:
216 can be fit into 1840 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 243963.143518
If we subtract 1728 from 1840, we get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
216 goes into 1120 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 243963.1435185
Deduct 1080 from 1120 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
216 goes into 400 1 times with a remainder of 184.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 243963.14351851
If we take 216 away from 400, we end up with 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

The final result is 243963.14351851 with a remainder of 1.84e-07.
