We divide 538645 by 52
Our goal is to divide 538645 by 52.

Let's proceed to step 1:
52 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 53 / 52

Let's proceed to step 2:
53 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 52 from 53 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 52

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 18 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 18 and continue: 186 / 52

On to step 4:
186 divided by 52 is 3 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 103.0
If we subtract 156 from 186, we get 30.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 304 / 52

Moving on to step 5:
52 goes into 304 5 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1035.0
If we take 260 away from 304, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 445 / 52

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 445 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10358.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 416 from 445.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 290 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10358.5
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 260 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10358.55
Subtract 260 from 300 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final result is 10358.55 with a remainder of 0.04.
