53256 divided by 89 
We want to divide 53256 by 89.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 89, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 53 / 89

Step 2:
The number 89 fits into 53 0 times, leaving a remainder of 53.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 0 from 53.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 53 and continue with: 532 / 89

On to step 3:
532 divided by 89 is 5 with a remainder of 87.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 445 from 532 to get 87.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 87 and continue with: 875 / 89

On to step 4:
89 can be fit into 875 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 74.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59.0
The remainder is 74 after subtracting 801 from 875.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 74, then repeat: 746 / 89

Advancing to step 5:
746 divided by 89 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 598.0
If we take 712 away from 746, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 340 by 89, we get 3 and a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 598.3
Subtract 267 from 340 to get 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
89 can be fit into 730 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 598.38
If we take 712 away from 730, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
89 can be fit into 180 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 598.382
Deduct 178 from 180 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 89 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 598.382
Subtract 0 from 20 to 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 10:
When dividing 200 by 89, we get 2 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 598.38202
If we take 178 away from 200, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
89 goes into 220 2 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 598.382022
If we take 178 away from 220, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Our division results in 598.382022 with a remaining 4.2e-06.
