We divide 488884 by 51
We want to figure out the number of times 488884 can be divided by 51.

Advancing to step 1:
51 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 51

Moving on to step 2:
51 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 48, we get 48.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 488 / 51

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 51 fits into 488 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 459 from 488 leaves us with 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 51

On to step 4:
51 can be fit into 298 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 95.0
If we subtract 255 from 298, we get 43.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 438 / 51

Step 5:
51 goes into 438 8 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 958.0
If we take 408 away from 438, we end up with 30.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 304 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
51 goes into 304 5 times with a remainder of 49.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9585.0
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 255 from 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 7:
490 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9585.9
Subtracting 459 from 490 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
310 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9585.96
Subtract 306 from 310 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
40 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 9585.96
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 51 fits into 400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9585.9607
Subtract 357 from 400 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
51 goes into 430 8 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9585.96078
Subtracting 408 from 430 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
51 can be fit into 220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9585.960784
If we subtract 204 from 220, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 160 by 51, we get 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9585.9607843
Deduct 153 from 160 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 70 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9585.96078431
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 51 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 9585.96078431 with a balance of 1.9e-08.
