Let's divide 216960 by 53
We're looking to find how many times 53 goes into 216960.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 53, we get 0 with 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.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 53

Advancing to step 2:
21 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 216 / 53

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 216 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 212 from 216, we get 4.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 49 / 53

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 49 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 40.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 496 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 can be fit into 496 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 409.0
Subtracting 477 from 496 leaves us with 19.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 190 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
53 goes into 190 3 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4093.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 159 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 310 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4093.5
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 265 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 53 fits into 450 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4093.58
Subtract 424 from 450 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
260 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4093.584
Subtracting 212 from 260 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 53 fits into 480 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4093.5849
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 477 from 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 30 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4093.5849
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
53 goes into 300 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4093.584905
If we subtract 265 from 300, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 350 by 53, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4093.5849056
If we take 318 away from 350, we end up with 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 14:
320 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4093.58490566
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 318 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4093.58490566 with a remaining 2e-09.
