We're dividing 507685 by 71 
Our goal is to divide 507685 by 71.

Step 1:
71 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 71

Moving on to step 2:
71 goes into 50 0 times with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 507 / 71

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 507 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 7.0
Subtracting 497 from 507 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 106 / 71

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 71 fits into 106 1 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 71.0
Subtracting 71 from 106 leaves us with 35.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 358 / 71

Let's proceed to step 5:
71 can be fit into 358 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 715.0
Subtract 355 from 358 to get 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 71

Moving on to step 6:
71 can be fit into 35 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7150.0
Deduct 0 from 35 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 71 fits into 350 4 times, leaving a remainder of 66.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7150.4
If we take 284 away from 350, we end up with 66.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 660, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
660 divided by 71 is 9 with a remainder of 21.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7150.49
If we subtract 639 from 660, we get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 210 by 71, we get 2 and a remainder of 68.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7150.492
Subtracting 142 from 210 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
680 divided by 71 is 9 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7150.4929
If we take 639 away from 680, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 71 fits into 410 5 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7150.49295
If we take 355 away from 410, we end up with 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 550 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 53.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7150.492957
If we subtract 497 from 550, we get 53.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 530 by 71, we get 7 with a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7150.4929577
Subtract 497 from 530 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 7150.4929577 and a remainder of 3.3e-07.
