We're dividing 52573462 by 491 
We're looking to find how many times 491 goes into 52573462.

Let's proceed to step 1:
491 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 491

On to step 2:
491 can be fit into 52 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 52, we end up with 52.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 52 and continue with: 525 / 491

Going ahead to step 3:
491 can be fit into 525 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 491 from 525 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 347 / 491

Going ahead to step 4:
347 divided by 491 is 0 with a remainder of 347.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 347 leaves us with 347.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 347 and repeat the process: 3473 / 491

Step 5:
3473 divided by 491 is 7 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 107.0
If we subtract 3437 from 3473, we get 36.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 364 / 491

Going ahead to step 6:
491 can be fit into 364 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 364.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1070.0
Subtract 0 from 364 to get 364.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 364, then repeat: 3646 / 491

Moving on to step 7:
3646 divided by 491 is 7 with a remainder of 209.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10707.0
If we subtract 3437 from 3646, we get 209.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 209, then repeat: 2092 / 491

Moving on to step 8:
The number 491 fits into 2092 4 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 107074.0
If we subtract 1964 from 2092, we get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1280 by 491, we get 2 with a remainder of 298.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 107074.2
Subtract 982 from 1280 to get 298.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2980, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
491 can be fit into 2980 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 107074.26
Subtract 2946 from 2980 to 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.

Step 11:
The number 491 fits into 340 0 times, leaving a remainder of 340.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107074.26
If we take 0 away from 340, we end up with 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
491 goes into 3400 6 times with a remainder of 454.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107074.2606
The remainder is 454 after subtracting 2946 from 3400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4540, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
491 goes into 4540 9 times with a remainder of 121.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 107074.26069
Deduct 4419 from 4540 and we're left with 121.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1210 by 491, we get 2 with a remainder of 228.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107074.260692
Subtract 982 from 1210 to get 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
2280 divided by 491 is 4 with a remainder of 316.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 107074.2606924
The remainder is 316 after subtracting 1964 from 2280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
491 goes into 3160 6 times with a remainder of 214.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107074.26069246
Deduct 2946 from 3160 and we're left with 214.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2140, and continue the process.

The final result is 107074.26069246 with a remainder of 2.14e-07.
