We divide 221254 by 54
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 221254.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 22 / 54

Advancing to step 2:
22 divided by 54 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 221 / 54

On to step 3:
54 goes into 221 4 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 216 from 221 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 54

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 52 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 52, then repeat: 525 / 54

Going ahead to step 5:
525 divided by 54 is 9 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 409.0
If we subtract 486 from 525, we get 39.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 394 / 54

Let's proceed to step 6:
54 goes into 394 7 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4097.0
If we subtract 378 from 394, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 54 fits into 160 2 times, leaving a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4097.2
If we take 108 away from 160, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 520 by 54, we get 9 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4097.29
If we take 486 away from 520, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 9:
54 goes into 340 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4097.296
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 324 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 54, we get 2 and a remainder of 52.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4097.2962
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 108 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 520 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4097.29629
If we take 486 away from 520, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 54 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4097.296296
If we subtract 324 from 340, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
54 goes into 160 2 times with a remainder of 52.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4097.2962962
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 108 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
54 goes into 520 9 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4097.29629629
Deduct 486 from 520 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

The final result is 4097.29629629 with a remainder of 3.4e-08.
