We divide 491999 by 53
We want to figure out the number of times 491999 can be divided by 53.

On to step 1:
53 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 53

On to step 2:
49 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 49 and continue with: 491 / 53

On to step 3:
53 can be fit into 491 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 477 from 491 to get 14.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 149 / 53

Step 4:
149 divided by 53 is 2 with a remainder of 43.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 92.0
Subtracting 106 from 149 leaves us with 43.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 439 / 53

Going ahead to step 5:
53 can be fit into 439 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 928.0
Deduct 424 from 439 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 159 / 53

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 159 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9283.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 159 from 159.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
0 divided by 53 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9283.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 53 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9283.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 9283.0 with a remaining 0.0.
