We divide 306857 by 51
Let's see how many times 51 fits into 306857.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 3, we end up with 3.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 30 / 51

Advancing to step 2:
30 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 306 / 51

On to step 3:
51 can be fit into 306 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 306 from 306.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 51

Let's proceed to step 4:
51 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 85 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
85 divided by 51 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 601.0
If we take 51 away from 85, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 347 / 51

Moving on to step 6:
347 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6016.0
If we take 306 away from 347, 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 7:
410 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6016.8
Subtract 408 from 410 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
51 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6016.8
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
200 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6016.803
Subtracting 153 from 200 leaves us with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
51 goes into 470 9 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6016.8039
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 459 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
110 divided by 51 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6016.80392
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 102 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 80 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6016.803921
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 51 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
51 goes into 290 5 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6016.8039215
If we subtract 255 from 290, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
51 can be fit into 350 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6016.80392156
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 306 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 6016.80392156 with a balance of 4.4e-08.
