We're dividing 51883797 by 538 
Our goal is to divide 51883797 by 538.

Going ahead to step 1:
538 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 538

Going ahead to step 2:
538 can be fit into 51 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 51, we end up with 51.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 518 / 538

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 518 by 538, we get 0 and a remainder of 518.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 518, we get 518.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 518 and repeat the process: 5188 / 538

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 538 fits into 5188 9 times, leaving a remainder of 346.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 4842 from 5188 leaves us with 346.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 346, then repeat: 3463 / 538

Step 5:
The number 538 fits into 3463 6 times, leaving a remainder of 235.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 96.0
Subtracting 3228 from 3463 leaves us with 235.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 235 and continue with: 2357 / 538

Advancing to step 6:
2357 divided by 538 is 4 with a remainder of 205.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 964.0
If we take 2152 away from 2357, we end up with 205.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 205, then carry on: 2059 / 538

Advancing to step 7:
The number 538 fits into 2059 3 times, leaving a remainder of 445.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9643.0
The remainder is 445 after subtracting 1614 from 2059.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 445, then repeat: 4457 / 538

Let's proceed to step 8:
538 can be fit into 4457 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 153.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96438.0
Deduct 4304 from 4457 and we're left with 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
538 can be fit into 1530 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 454.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 96438.2
The remainder is 454 after subtracting 1076 from 1530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4540, and continue the process.

Step 10:
538 goes into 4540 8 times with a remainder of 236.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96438.28
Subtracting 4304 from 4540 leaves us with 236.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 2360 by 538, we get 4 with a remainder of 208.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 96438.284
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 2152 from 2360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
2080 divided by 538 is 3 with a remainder of 466.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 96438.2843
The remainder is 466 after subtracting 1614 from 2080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4660, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 538 fits into 4660 8 times, leaving a remainder of 356.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 96438.28438
Subtract 4304 from 4660 to get 356.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3560, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
3560 divided by 538 is 6 with a remainder of 332.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96438.284386
Subtracting 3228 from 3560 leaves us with 332.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3320, and continue the process.

Step 15:
538 can be fit into 3320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 96438.2843866
If we subtract 3228 from 3320, we get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 96438.2843866 with a balance of 9.2e-07.
