Let's divide 278111 by 53
We want to divide 278111 by 53.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 53

Going ahead to step 2:
53 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 27 to get 27.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 278 / 53

Let's proceed to step 3:
278 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 265 from 278, we get 13.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 131 / 53

Advancing to step 4:
131 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we take 106 away from 131, we end up with 25.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 251 / 53

Let's proceed to step 5:
53 goes into 251 4 times with a remainder of 39.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 524.0
Deduct 212 from 251 and we're left with 39.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 391 / 53

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 391 by 53, we get 7 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5247.0
If we subtract 371 from 391, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5247.3
Subtracting 159 from 200 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 53 fits into 410 7 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5247.37
Subtracting 371 from 410 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 goes into 390 7 times with a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5247.377
If we subtract 371 from 390, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5247.377, and the remainder is 0.0019.
