We're dividing 858996 by 53 
Our goal is to divide 858996 by 53.

Moving on to step 1:
8 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 53

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 53 fits into 85 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 53 from 85 leaves us with 32.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 328 / 53

Let's proceed to step 3:
53 can be fit into 328 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 318 from 328, we get 10.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 109 / 53

Let's proceed to step 4:
109 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 3.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 162.0
Subtract 106 from 109 to get 3.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 39 / 53

Advancing to step 5:
53 goes into 39 0 times with a remainder of 39.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1620.0
Subtract 0 from 39 to get 39.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 396 / 53

Let's proceed to step 6:
53 can be fit into 396 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16207.0
Deduct 371 from 396 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16207.4
If we subtract 212 from 250, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 380 by 53, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16207.47
Subtracting 371 from 380 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 9:
90 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 16207.471
If we take 53 away from 90, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 370 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 52.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 16207.4716
Subtracting 318 from 370 leaves us with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
53 can be fit into 520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16207.47169
Deduct 477 from 520 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
53 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16207.471698
Subtracting 424 from 430 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 60 by 53, we get 1 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16207.4716981
If we subtract 53 from 60, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
53 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16207.47169811
Subtracting 53 from 70 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16207.47169811 with a balance of 1.7e-08.
