We look at the division of 50066491 by 878 
We're looking to find how many times 878 goes into 50066491.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 878, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 878

On to step 2:
The number 878 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 50 and repeat the process: 500 / 878

Step 3:
The number 878 fits into 500 0 times, leaving a remainder of 500.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 500, we get 500.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 500, then repeat: 5006 / 878

On to step 4:
When dividing 5006 by 878, we get 5 with a remainder of 616.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 4390 from 5006 leaves us with 616.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 616 and continue with: 6166 / 878

Going ahead to step 5:
878 goes into 6166 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 6146 from 6166 to get 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 878

Going ahead to step 6:
204 divided by 878 is 0 with a remainder of 204.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 570.0
Deduct 0 from 204 and we're left with 204.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 204 and repeat the process: 2049 / 878

Step 7:
The number 878 fits into 2049 2 times, leaving a remainder of 293.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5702.0
Deduct 1756 from 2049 and we're left with 293.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 293, then repeat: 2931 / 878

Let's proceed to step 8:
878 goes into 2931 3 times with a remainder of 297.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57023.0
Subtracting 2634 from 2931 leaves us with 297.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2970, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
2970 divided by 878 is 3 with a remainder of 336.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57023.3
If we subtract 2634 from 2970, we get 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
878 goes into 3360 3 times with a remainder of 726.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57023.33
If we subtract 2634 from 3360, we get 726.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7260, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 57023.33 with a balance of 0.726.
