We look at the division of 964997 by 52 
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 964997.

Let's proceed to step 1:
52 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
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 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
52 can be fit into 96 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 52 from 96 and we're left with 44.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 444 / 52

Let's proceed to step 3:
52 goes into 444 8 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 416 from 444 to get 28.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 289 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 289 by 52, we get 5 with a remainder of 29.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 185.0
If we subtract 260 from 289, we get 29.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 299 / 52

Advancing to step 5:
52 goes into 299 5 times with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1855.0
Deduct 260 from 299 and we're left with 39.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 397 / 52

Moving on to step 6:
397 divided by 52 is 7 with a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18557.0
If we take 364 away from 397, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 7:
52 can be fit into 330 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18557.6
Subtract 312 from 330 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
52 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18557.63
Deduct 156 from 180 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.

Moving on to step 9:
240 divided by 52 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18557.634
Deduct 208 from 240 and we're left 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.

On to step 10:
The number 52 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18557.6346
Subtract 312 from 320 to get 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 11:
The number 52 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18557.63461
Subtract 52 from 80 to 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.

On to step 12:
The number 52 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18557.634615
Deduct 260 from 280 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
52 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18557.6346153
If we take 156 away from 200, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 440 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18557.63461538
If we take 416 away from 440, we end up 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.

Our division results in 18557.63461538 with a remaining 2.4e-08.
