We're dividing 305261 by 53 
Let's see how many times 53 fits into 305261.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 53 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 30 / 53

Moving on to step 2:
53 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 305 / 53

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 53 fits into 305 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 265 from 305, we get 40.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 402 / 53

On to step 4:
402 divided by 53 is 7 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 371 from 402, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 316 / 53

Step 5:
When dividing 316 by 53, we get 5 with a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 575.0
If we subtract 265 from 316, we get 51.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 51 and continue: 511 / 53

On to step 6:
The number 53 fits into 511 9 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5759.0
If we subtract 477 from 511, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 53 fits into 340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 5759.6
Subtracting 318 from 340 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
220 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5759.64
Subtracting 212 from 220 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 9:
The number 53 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5759.641
Deduct 53 from 80 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 53 fits into 270 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5759.6415
If we subtract 265 from 270, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
53 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5759.6415
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
53 can be fit into 500 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5759.641509
If we subtract 477 from 500, we get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
230 divided by 53 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5759.6415094
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 212 from 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 180 by 53, we get 3 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5759.64150943
Subtract 159 from 180 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5759.64150943, and the remainder is 2.1e-08.
