We look at the division of 966983 by 54 
We want to figure out the number of times 966983 can be divided by 54.

Step 1:
54 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 96 / 54

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 54 fits into 96 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 54 away from 96, we end up with 42.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 426 / 54

Let's proceed to step 3:
426 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 48.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtracting 378 from 426 leaves us with 48.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 489 / 54

Moving on to step 4:
54 goes into 489 9 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 179.0
Subtracting 486 from 489 leaves us with 3.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 38 / 54

Advancing to step 5:
54 goes into 38 0 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1790.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 38 and continue with: 383 / 54

On to step 6:
When dividing 383 by 54, we get 7 with a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17907.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 378 from 383.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
54 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17907.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
54 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17907.09
If we take 486 away from 500, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
54 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17907.092
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 108 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
54 goes into 320 5 times with a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17907.0925
Deduct 270 from 320 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 500 by 54, we get 9 and a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17907.09259
If we subtract 486 from 500, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 54 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17907.092592
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 108 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
320 divided by 54 is 5 with a remainder of 50.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17907.0925925
If we subtract 270 from 320, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 500 by 54, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17907.09259259
Subtract 486 from 500 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 17907.09259259, with a leftover of 1.4e-08.
