Let's divide 972799 by 53
Let's see how many times 53 fits into 972799.

Advancing to step 1:
53 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.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
53 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 53 from 97 leaves us with 44.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 442 / 53

Advancing to step 3:
53 can be fit into 442 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 424 from 442 to get 18.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 187 / 53

Moving on to step 4:
187 divided by 53 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 183.0
Deduct 159 from 187 and we're left with 28.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 289 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 goes into 289 5 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1835.0
Subtract 265 from 289 to get 24.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 249 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
249 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18354.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 212 from 249.
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 7:
370 divided by 53 is 6 with a remainder of 52.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18354.6
The remainder is 52 after subtracting 318 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
53 can be fit into 520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18354.69
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 477 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18354.698
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 424 from 430.
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 10:
When dividing 60 by 53, we get 1 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18354.6981
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 53 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
70 divided by 53 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18354.69811
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 53 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 18354.69811, with a leftover of 1.7e-05.
