256340 divided by 49 
We want to divide 256340 by 49.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 49, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 49

On to step 2:
49 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 256 / 49

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 49 fits into 256 5 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 245 from 256 and we're left with 11.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 113 / 49

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 113 by 49, we get 2 and a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
The remainder is 15 after subtracting 98 from 113.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 154 / 49

Moving on to step 5:
154 divided by 49 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 523.0
Deduct 147 from 154 and we're left with 7.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 70 / 49

Advancing to step 6:
49 goes into 70 1 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5231.0
Subtracting 49 from 70 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 210 by 49, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5231.4
Subtracting 196 from 210 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
49 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5231.42
Subtract 98 from 140 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 49, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5231.428
Subtract 392 from 420 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 49 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5231.4285
Subtract 245 from 280 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
350 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5231.42857
Subtracting 343 from 350 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 70 by 49, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5231.428571
If we take 49 away from 70, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
49 goes into 210 4 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5231.4285714
Subtracting 196 from 210 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 140 by 49, we get 2 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5231.42857142
If we subtract 98 from 140, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5231.42857142 with a balance of 4.2e-08.
