49699987 divided by 979 
Our goal is to divide 49699987 by 979.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 979 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 979

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 979 fits into 49 0 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 49 leaves us with 49.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 496 / 979

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 496 by 979, we get 0 and a remainder of 496.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 496 and we're left with 496.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 496 and continue with: 4969 / 979

Step 4:
The number 979 fits into 4969 5 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 4895 away from 4969, we end up with 74.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 74 and continue with: 749 / 979

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 749 by 979, we get 0 and a remainder of 749.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 749 after subtracting 0 from 749.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 749, then carry on: 7499 / 979

On to step 6:
7499 divided by 979 is 7 with a remainder of 646.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 507.0
The remainder is 646 after subtracting 6853 from 7499.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 646, then carry on: 6468 / 979

Moving on to step 7:
979 can be fit into 6468 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 594.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5076.0
Subtract 5874 from 6468 to get 594.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 594, then carry on: 5947 / 979

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 5947 by 979, we get 6 and a remainder of 73.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50766.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 5874 from 5947.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 730 by 979, we get 0 and a remainder of 730.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50766.0
If we subtract 0 from 730, we get 730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 7300 by 979, we get 7 with a remainder of 447.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 50766.07
If we take 6853 away from 7300, we end up with 447.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
979 can be fit into 4470 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 554.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50766.074
Subtracting 3916 from 4470 leaves us with 554.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5540, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
979 can be fit into 5540 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 645.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 50766.0745
The remainder is 645 after subtracting 4895 from 5540.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 6450 by 979, we get 6 with a remainder of 576.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50766.07456
Deduct 5874 from 6450 and we're left with 576.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5760, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
979 can be fit into 5760 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 865.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 50766.074565
The remainder is 865 after subtracting 4895 from 5760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8650, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
979 can be fit into 8650 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 818.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50766.0745658
Subtracting 7832 from 8650 leaves us with 818.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 8180 by 979, we get 8 with a remainder of 348.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50766.07456588
Subtracting 7832 from 8180 leaves us with 348.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3480, and continue the process.

Our division results in 50766.07456588 with a remaining 3.48e-07.
