Let's divide 398534 by 53
Our goal is to divide 398534 by 53.

Going ahead to step 1:
53 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 53

Step 2:
53 can be fit into 39 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 398 / 53

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 398 7 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtract 371 from 398 to get 27.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 275 / 53

Moving on to step 4:
275 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 75.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 265 from 275.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 103 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 can be fit into 103 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 751.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 53 from 103.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 504 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
The number 53 fits into 504 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7519.0
If we take 477 away from 504, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
270 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 7519.5
If we take 265 away from 270, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 50 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7519.5
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 500 by 53, we get 9 with a remainder of 23.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7519.509
If we subtract 477 from 500, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 230 by 53, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7519.5094
Subtracting 212 from 230 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
53 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7519.50943
Subtract 159 from 180 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 12:
53 goes into 210 3 times with a remainder of 51.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7519.509433
Subtracting 159 from 210 leaves us with 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7519.509433 and a remainder of 5.1e-06.
