We're dividing 87956 by 52 
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 87956.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 52, we get 1 with a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 52 from 87, we get 35.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 359 / 52

On to step 3:
The number 52 fits into 359 6 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 312 from 359, we get 47.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 475 / 52

Moving on to step 4:
475 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 169.0
Subtracting 468 from 475 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 76 / 52

On to step 5:
76 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1691.0
Subtracting 52 from 76 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 6:
52 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1691.4
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 208 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 52 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1691.46
Subtracting 312 from 320 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
52 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1691.461
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
52 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1691.4615
Subtract 260 from 280 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 52, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1691.46153
Subtract 156 from 200 to 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.

On to step 11:
52 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1691.461538
If we subtract 416 from 440, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
52 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1691.4615384
Deduct 208 from 240 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
The number 52 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1691.46153846
If we take 312 away from 320, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1691.46153846 and a remainder of 8e-09.
