We divide 1261184 by 53
We want to divide 1261184 by 53.

Step 1:
1 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 12 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
53 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 126 / 53

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 126 by 53, we get 2 with a remainder of 20.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 106 from 126 leaves us with 20.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 201 / 53

On to step 4:
The number 53 fits into 201 3 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 159 away from 201, we end up with 42.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 42 and continue: 421 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 421 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 237.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 371 from 421.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 50, then repeat: 508 / 53

Moving on to step 6:
508 divided by 53 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2379.0
Deduct 477 from 508 and we're left with 31.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 31, then repeat: 314 / 53

Going ahead to step 7:
53 goes into 314 5 times with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23795.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 265 from 314.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 490 by 53, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 23795.9
If we subtract 477 from 490, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
53 can be fit into 130 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 23795.92
Subtracting 106 from 130 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
If we divide 240 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23795.924
Deduct 212 from 240 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
280 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23795.9245
Deduct 265 from 280 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 150 by 53, we get 2 and a remainder of 44.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 23795.92452
If we take 106 away from 150, 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.

On to step 13:
53 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23795.924528
Subtracting 424 from 440 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23795.9245283
If we subtract 159 from 160, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 10 by 53, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23795.9245283
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 23795.9245283 with a remaining 1e-08.
