We're dividing 170147 by 52 
Our goal is to divide 170147 by 52.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 52 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 52

On to step 2:
52 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 17 and we're left with 17.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 170 / 52

Step 3:
52 goes into 170 3 times with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 156 away from 170, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 141 / 52

Let's proceed to step 4:
52 can be fit into 141 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 104 from 141.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 37 and continue with: 374 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
374 divided by 52 is 7 with a remainder of 10.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 327.0
Subtract 364 from 374 to get 10.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 107 / 52

Let's proceed to step 6:
52 goes into 107 2 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3272.0
If we take 104 away from 107, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
30 divided by 52 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3272.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3272.05
If we subtract 260 from 300, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
400 divided by 52 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3272.057
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 364 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 360 by 52, we get 6 with a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3272.0576
If we take 312 away from 360, we end up 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.

Step 11:
If we divide 480 by 52, we get 9 and a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3272.05769
Subtract 468 from 480 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 120 by 52, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3272.057692
Subtract 104 from 120 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 160 by 52, we get 3 with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3272.0576923
If we subtract 156 from 160, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3272.0576923
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3272.0576923 with a remaining 4e-08.
