We're dividing 49877804 by 981 
We're looking to find how many times 981 goes into 49877804.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 981 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 981

Step 2:
49 divided by 981 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 0 from 49.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 49 and repeat the process: 498 / 981

Step 3:
The number 981 fits into 498 0 times, leaving a remainder of 498.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 498 after subtracting 0 from 498.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 498, then repeat: 4987 / 981

Advancing to step 4:
The number 981 fits into 4987 5 times, leaving a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 4905 away from 4987, we end up with 82.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 82 and repeat the process: 827 / 981

On to step 5:
If we divide 827 by 981, we get 0 and a remainder of 827.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 827 after subtracting 0 from 827.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 827, then repeat: 8278 / 981

Step 6:
The number 981 fits into 8278 8 times, leaving a remainder of 430.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 508.0
Deduct 7848 from 8278 and we're left with 430.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 430, then repeat: 4300 / 981

Moving on to step 7:
981 can be fit into 4300 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 376.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5084.0
Subtract 3924 from 4300 to get 376.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 376, then repeat: 3764 / 981

Step 8:
The number 981 fits into 3764 3 times, leaving a remainder of 821.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50843.0
Subtract 2943 from 3764 to get 821.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
981 can be fit into 8210 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 362.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50843.8
Deduct 7848 from 8210 and we're left with 362.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3620, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
981 can be fit into 3620 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 677.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50843.83
The remainder is 677 after subtracting 2943 from 3620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6770, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 981 fits into 6770 6 times, leaving a remainder of 884.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50843.836
Deduct 5886 from 6770 and we're left with 884.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8840, and continue the process.

Step 12:
8840 divided by 981 is 9 with a remainder of 11.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50843.8369
Subtract 8829 from 8840 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 110 by 981, we get 0 and a remainder of 110.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50843.8369
If we take 0 away from 110, we end up with 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 1100 by 981, we get 1 with a remainder of 119.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 50843.836901
If we take 981 away from 1100, we end up with 119.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1190, and continue the process.

Step 15:
If we divide 1190 by 981, we get 1 and a remainder of 209.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 50843.8369011
The remainder is 209 after subtracting 981 from 1190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2090, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 50843.8369011 with a balance of 2.09e-06.
