We divide 272757 by 53
We want to divide 272757 by 53.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 53 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 27 / 53

On to step 2:
53 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 272 / 53

Step 3:
272 divided by 53 is 5 with a remainder of 7.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 265 from 272 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 77 / 53

Advancing to step 4:
53 goes into 77 1 times with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we take 53 away from 77, we end up with 24.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 245 / 53

Step 5:
53 goes into 245 4 times with a remainder of 33.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 514.0
Subtracting 212 from 245 leaves us with 33.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 337 / 53

Step 6:
When dividing 337 by 53, we get 6 with a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5146.0
Deduct 318 from 337 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
53 goes into 190 3 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5146.3
Deduct 159 from 190 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
53 can be fit into 310 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5146.35
If we subtract 265 from 310, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
53 goes into 450 8 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5146.358
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 424 from 450.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 10:
260 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 48.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5146.3584
Subtracting 212 from 260 leaves us with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 480 by 53, we get 9 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5146.35849
If we subtract 477 from 480, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
53 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5146.35849
If we take 0 away from 30, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 300 by 53, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5146.3584905
Subtract 265 from 300 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 14:
53 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5146.35849056
Subtract 318 from 350 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5146.35849056 with a remaining 3.2e-08.
