We divide 111872 by 52
Our goal is to divide 111872 by 52.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 52, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 11 / 52

Moving on to step 2:
52 goes into 11 0 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 11, we end up with 11.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 111 / 52

Let's proceed to step 3:
52 can be fit into 111 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 104 away from 111, we end up with 7.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 78 / 52

Step 4:
78 divided by 52 is 1 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 52 from 78.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 26 and continue with: 267 / 52

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 267 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 7.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 215.0
If we subtract 260 from 267, we get 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 52

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 72 by 52, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2151.0
If we subtract 52 from 72, we 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.

On to step 7:
The number 52 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2151.3
Subtract 156 from 200 to 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 440 by 52, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2151.38
Subtracting 416 from 440 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
52 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2151.384
If we take 208 away from 240, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
52 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2151.3846
Deduct 312 from 320 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 11:
52 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2151.38461
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 280 by 52, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2151.384615
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.

Step 13:
The number 52 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2151.3846153
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 440 by 52, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2151.38461538
Deduct 416 from 440 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The final result is 2151.38461538 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
