49462 ÷ 29 
We want to figure out the number of times 49462 can be divided by 29.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 29, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 29

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 29, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 29 from 49 and we're left with 20.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 204 / 29

Advancing to step 3:
204 divided by 29 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 203 away from 204, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 16 / 29

Advancing to step 4:
29 goes into 16 0 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 170.0
Deduct 0 from 16 and we're left with 16.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 162 / 29

Step 5:
162 divided by 29 is 5 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1705.0
If we subtract 145 from 162, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
When dividing 170 by 29, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1705.5
Deduct 145 from 170 and we're left 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.

Step 7:
When dividing 250 by 29, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1705.58
Subtracting 232 from 250 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 29 fits into 180 6 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1705.586
Subtract 174 from 180 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
29 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1705.5862
Subtracting 58 from 60 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 10:
20 divided by 29 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1705.5862
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 29 fits into 200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1705.586206
If we subtract 174 from 200, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
29 goes into 260 8 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1705.5862068
Subtracting 232 from 260 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 29 fits into 280 9 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1705.58620689
Subtract 261 from 280 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1705.58620689, with a leftover of 1.9e-08.
