We're dividing 356697 by 53 
Our goal is to divide 356697 by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
53 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 53

On to step 2:
53 can be fit into 35 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 0 from 35.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 356 / 53

On to step 3:
When dividing 356 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 318 away from 356, we end up with 38.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 386 / 53

Step 4:
If we divide 386 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 15.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 67.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 371 from 386.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 159 / 53

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 159 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 673.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 159 from 159.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 7 / 53

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 7 by 53, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 6730.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
53 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6730.1
Subtracting 53 from 70 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 170 by 53, we get 3 with a remainder of 11.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6730.13
Deduct 159 from 170 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
53 can be fit into 110 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6730.132
Deduct 106 from 110 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
40 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6730.132
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 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 11:
If we divide 400 by 53, we get 7 and a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 6730.13207
If we subtract 371 from 400, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 53 fits into 290 5 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6730.132075
Subtract 265 from 290 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 250 by 53, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6730.1320754
If we subtract 212 from 250, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 53 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6730.13207547
If we subtract 371 from 380, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

The final result is 6730.13207547 with a remainder of 9e-09.
