Let's divide 897832 by 54
We want to figure out the number of times 897832 can be divided by 54.

On to step 1:
The number 54 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 54

On to step 2:
54 goes into 89 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 54 from 89 leaves us with 35.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 357 / 54

Going ahead to step 3:
357 divided by 54 is 6 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 324 from 357 to get 33.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 338 / 54

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 54 fits into 338 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 166.0
Subtract 324 from 338 to get 14.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 143 / 54

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 54 fits into 143 2 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1662.0
Subtracting 108 from 143 leaves us with 35.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 352 / 54

Step 6:
If we divide 352 by 54, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16626.0
Deduct 324 from 352 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 280 by 54, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16626.5
Deduct 270 from 280 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 54, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16626.51
Subtract 54 from 100 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 460 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16626.518
If we subtract 432 from 460, 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.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 280 by 54, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16626.5185
Subtract 270 from 280 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
54 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16626.51851
Subtract 54 from 100 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 460 by 54, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16626.518518
Subtracting 432 from 460 leaves us 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.

Step 13:
If we divide 280 by 54, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16626.5185185
Subtract 270 from 280 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 100 by 54, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16626.51851851
Subtracting 54 from 100 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16626.51851851 with a balance of 4.6e-08.
