We look at the division of 258896 by 52 
We want to figure out the number of times 258896 can be divided by 52.

Moving on to step 1:
52 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 52

Advancing to step 2:
52 can be fit into 25 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 25 and we're left with 25.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 25 and continue: 258 / 52

On to step 3:
258 divided by 52 is 4 with a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 208 from 258 to get 50.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 508 / 52

On to step 4:
508 divided by 52 is 9 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 468 from 508.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 409 / 52

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 409 by 52, we get 7 with a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 497.0
Subtracting 364 from 409 leaves us with 45.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 456 / 52

Going ahead to step 6:
52 can be fit into 456 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4978.0
Subtracting 416 from 456 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 52, we get 7 and a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4978.7
If we take 364 away from 400, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 52 fits into 360 6 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4978.76
If we subtract 312 from 360, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
52 can be fit into 480 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4978.769
Subtracting 468 from 480 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
52 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4978.7692
Subtracting 104 from 120 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 52 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4978.76923
Deduct 156 from 160 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
52 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4978.76923
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 13:
52 can be fit into 400 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4978.7692307
If we subtract 364 from 400, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
52 goes into 360 6 times with a remainder of 48.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4978.76923076
Subtracting 312 from 360 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 4978.76923076 and a remainder of 4.8e-08.
