We're dividing 257676 by 52 
We want to divide 257676 by 52.

On to step 1:
2 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 52

On to step 2:
The number 52 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 257 / 52

Moving on to step 3:
The number 52 fits into 257 4 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 208 from 257 leaves us with 49.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 496 / 52

Going ahead to step 4:
52 goes into 496 9 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 468 from 496.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 287 / 52

On to step 5:
The number 52 fits into 287 5 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 495.0
Deduct 260 from 287 and we're left with 27.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 276 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
52 goes into 276 5 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4955.0
Deduct 260 from 276 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 7:
160 divided by 52 is 3 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4955.3
If we subtract 156 from 160, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
40 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4955.3
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 52 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4955.307
Subtracting 364 from 400 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 52 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4955.3076
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 312 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 480 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4955.30769
If we subtract 468 from 480, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 120 by 52, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4955.307692
Subtracting 104 from 120 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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 160 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4955.3076923
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 156 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4955.3076923
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4955.3076923 with a remaining 4e-08.
