We're dividing 262004 by 52 
We're looking to find how many times 52 goes into 262004.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 52, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 26 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
26 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 26, we end up with 26.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 262 / 52

Step 3:
52 can be fit into 262 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 260 from 262 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 20 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
52 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 200 / 52

Step 5:
When dividing 200 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 503.0
Subtracting 156 from 200 leaves us with 44.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 444 / 52

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 52 fits into 444 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5038.0
Subtracting 416 from 444 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
52 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5038.5
Deduct 260 from 280 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5038.53
If we subtract 156 from 200, we 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.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 440 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5038.538
Subtract 416 from 440 to 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.

On to step 10:
240 divided by 52 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5038.5384
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 11:
52 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5038.53846
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 12:
The number 52 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5038.538461
Subtract 52 from 80 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 52 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5038.5384615
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
52 can be fit into 200 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5038.53846153
Deduct 156 from 200 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5038.53846153 with a balance of 4.4e-08.
