We look at the division of 173140 by 52 
We want to divide 173140 by 52.

Moving on to step 1:
52 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 52

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 52 fits into 17 0 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 17 to get 17.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 173 / 52

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 173 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 156 from 173 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 171 / 52

Moving on to step 4:
52 goes into 171 3 times with a remainder of 15.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 33.0
Subtracting 156 from 171 leaves us with 15.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 52

Step 5:
When dividing 154 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 50.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 332.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 104 from 154.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 500 / 52

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 500 9 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3329.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 468 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 320 by 52, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3329.6
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 312 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
80 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3329.61
If we subtract 52 from 80, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 52 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3329.615
Subtracting 260 from 280 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
52 goes into 200 3 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3329.6153
Subtract 156 from 200 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
52 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3329.61538
Deduct 416 from 440 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
52 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3329.615384
Subtract 208 from 240 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 52 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3329.6153846
If we take 312 away from 320, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
52 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3329.61538461
If we take 52 away from 80, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3329.61538461, and the remainder is 2.8e-08.
