We divide 538497 by 13
Let's see how many times 13 fits into 538497.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 13 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 53 / 13

Advancing to step 2:
53 divided by 13 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 52 from 53 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 13

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 13 fits into 18 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we take 13 away from 18, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 54 / 13

On to step 4:
The number 13 fits into 54 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 414.0
Deduct 52 from 54 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 13

Advancing to step 5:
13 can be fit into 29 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4142.0
If we subtract 26 from 29, we get 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 13

On to step 6:
13 goes into 37 2 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41422.0
Subtracting 26 from 37 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 110 by 13, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41422.8
Subtracting 104 from 110 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 60 by 13, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41422.84
Subtracting 52 from 60 leaves us 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.

On to step 9:
13 can be fit into 80 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41422.846
Deduct 78 from 80 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 20 by 13, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41422.8461
Subtract 13 from 20 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
13 goes into 70 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41422.84615
If we take 65 away from 70, we end up with 5.
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 12:
50 divided by 13 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41422.846153
If we take 39 away from 50, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
13 goes into 110 8 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41422.8461538
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 104 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 60 by 13, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41422.84615384
If we take 52 away from 60, 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 41422.84615384 with a balance of 8e-09.
