Let's divide 148507 by 53
We want to divide 148507 by 53.

On to step 1:
1 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 53

Let's proceed to step 2:
53 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 148 / 53

Going ahead to step 3:
53 can be fit into 148 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 106 away from 148, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 425 / 53

Moving on to step 4:
425 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 1.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 424 from 425 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 10 / 53

Step 5:
53 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 280.0
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 107 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 107 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2802.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 106 from 107.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 10 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2802.0
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 47.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2802.01
Subtracting 53 from 100 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 470 by 53, we get 8 and a remainder of 46.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2802.018
Deduct 424 from 470 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
460 divided by 53 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2802.0188
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 424 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 2802.0188 with a remaining 0.00036.
