We're dividing 310916 by 53 
Our goal is to divide 310916 by 53.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 3 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 53

Step 2:
53 can be fit into 31 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 31 leaves us with 31.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 310 / 53

On to step 3:
310 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 265 from 310.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 459 / 53

Moving on to step 4:
53 can be fit into 459 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Subtracting 424 from 459 leaves us with 35.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 351 / 53

Step 5:
If we divide 351 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 33.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 586.0
If we take 318 away from 351, we end up with 33.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 336 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 336 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5866.0
If we subtract 318 from 336, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 180 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5866.3
Subtracting 159 from 180 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 210 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5866.33
If we subtract 159 from 210, we get 51.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 510, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5866.33 with a balance of 0.051.
