We're dividing 716974 by 51 
We want to figure out the number of times 716974 can be divided by 51.

Let's proceed to step 1:
51 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 71 / 51

Going ahead to step 2:
71 divided by 51 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 51 away from 71, we end up with 20.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 206 / 51

On to step 3:
When dividing 206 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 204 from 206 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 51

Let's proceed to step 4:
29 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 140.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 297 / 51

Advancing to step 5:
The number 51 fits into 297 5 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1405.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 255 from 297.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 51

Step 6:
51 can be fit into 424 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14058.0
Deduct 408 from 424 and we're left 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.

Step 7:
51 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14058.3
If we take 153 away from 160, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 8:
70 divided by 51 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 14058.31
If we take 51 away from 70, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 9:
51 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14058.313
Deduct 153 from 190 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 10:
51 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14058.3137
If we take 357 away from 370, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 51 fits into 130 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14058.31372
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 102 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
280 divided by 51 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14058.313725
Subtracting 255 from 280 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 250 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14058.3137254
Subtract 204 from 250 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
51 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14058.31372549
If we take 459 away from 460, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 14058.31372549, and the remainder is 1e-09.
