542849 divided by 52 
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 542849.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 52

On to step 2:
52 goes into 54 1 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 52 away from 54, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 22 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 22 to get 22.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 228 / 52

Advancing to step 4:
52 can be fit into 228 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 104.0
Subtract 208 from 228 to get 20.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 204 / 52

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 204 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1043.0
If we subtract 156 from 204, we get 48.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 489 / 52

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 489 by 52, we get 9 with a remainder of 21.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10439.0
If we take 468 away from 489, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
52 goes into 210 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10439.4
If we take 208 away from 210, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10439.4
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 52 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10439.403
If we subtract 156 from 200, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
440 divided by 52 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10439.4038
Deduct 416 from 440 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
240 divided by 52 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10439.40384
If we take 208 away from 240, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10439.403846
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 312 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 80 by 52, we get 1 and a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10439.4038461
If we take 52 away from 80, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 14:
52 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 10439.40384615
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 260 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10439.40384615 with a balance of 2e-08.
