Let's divide 452271 by 51
We want to figure out the number of times 452271 can be divided by 51.

On to step 1:
The number 51 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 45 / 51

On to step 2:
If we divide 45 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 45, we end up with 45.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 452 / 51

Step 3:
452 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 408 from 452.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 442 / 51

Step 4:
51 goes into 442 8 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Subtract 408 from 442 to get 34.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 347 / 51

Step 5:
51 goes into 347 6 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 886.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 306 from 347.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 411 / 51

Advancing to step 6:
51 goes into 411 8 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8868.0
If we subtract 408 from 411, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
51 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8868.0
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
51 can be fit into 300 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8868.05
Deduct 255 from 300 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
450 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8868.058
If we take 408 away from 450, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 51 fits into 420 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8868.0588
Deduct 408 from 420 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8868.0588, and the remainder is 0.00012.
