We're dividing 178747 by 51 
We're looking to find how many times 51 goes into 178747.

Step 1:
When dividing 1 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 51

Step 2:
51 goes into 17 0 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 17, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 178 / 51

Step 3:
When dividing 178 by 51, we get 3 with a remainder of 25.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 153 from 178 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 51

Step 4:
51 can be fit into 257 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
Deduct 255 from 257 and we're left with 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 51

Step 5:
When dividing 24 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 350.0
Subtracting 0 from 24 leaves us with 24.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 247 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 247 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 43.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3504.0
Subtract 204 from 247 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.

On to step 7:
51 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3504.8
Deduct 408 from 430 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 51 fits into 220 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3504.84
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 9:
51 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3504.843
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 153 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
70 divided by 51 is 1 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3504.8431
Deduct 51 from 70 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 190 by 51, we get 3 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3504.84313
If we take 153 away from 190, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 12:
If we divide 370 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3504.843137
If we subtract 357 from 370, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
51 can be fit into 130 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3504.8431372
Subtracting 102 from 130 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 280 by 51, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3504.84313725
If we take 255 away from 280, we end up with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Our division results in 3504.84313725 with a remaining 2.5e-08.
