988488 ÷ 53 
We want to divide 988488 by 53.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 53

On to step 2:
53 goes into 98 1 times with a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 53 from 98 leaves us with 45.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 458 / 53

On to step 3:
53 can be fit into 458 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 424 from 458 leaves us with 34.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 344 / 53

Step 4:
If we divide 344 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 186.0
If we subtract 318 from 344, we get 26.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 268 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 53 fits into 268 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1865.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 265 from 268.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 53

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 38 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18650.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 380 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18650.7
If we take 371 away from 380, we end up with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
53 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18650.71
Subtracting 53 from 90 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 9:
370 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 18650.716
Subtract 318 from 370 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
53 can be fit into 520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18650.7169
Deduct 477 from 520 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
53 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18650.71698
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 424 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 60 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18650.716981
Subtracting 53 from 60 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 70 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18650.7169811
If we take 53 away from 70, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 18650.7169811, and the remainder is 1.7e-07.
