Let's divide 223874 by 50
Our goal is to divide 223874 by 50.

Going ahead to step 1:
2 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 50

Step 2:
The number 50 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 223 / 50

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 223 by 50, we get 4 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 200 from 223.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 238 / 50

Going ahead to step 4:
238 divided by 50 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 44.0
Deduct 200 from 238 and we're left with 38.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 387 / 50

Going ahead to step 5:
50 can be fit into 387 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 447.0
Subtracting 350 from 387 leaves us with 37.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 374 / 50

Step 6:
The number 50 fits into 374 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4477.0
Deduct 350 from 374 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
50 can be fit into 240 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4477.4
Subtract 200 from 240 to 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
50 goes into 400 8 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4477.48
Subtract 400 from 400 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 50 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4477.48
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4477.48
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4477.48 with a balance of 0.0.
