We divide 51475 by 16
Our goal is to divide 51475 by 16.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 51 / 16

Advancing to step 2:
16 goes into 51 3 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 48 from 51.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 34 / 16

Step 3:
When dividing 34 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 32.0
Subtracting 32 from 34 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 16

Step 4:
When dividing 27 by 16, we get 1 with a remainder of 11.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 321.0
Subtracting 16 from 27 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 115 / 16

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 115 by 16, we get 7 and a remainder of 3.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3217.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 112 from 115.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
16 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3217.1
Subtracting 16 from 30 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 7:
The number 16 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3217.18
Deduct 128 from 140 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.

Step 8:
16 goes into 120 7 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3217.187
Subtract 112 from 120 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
16 can be fit into 80 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3217.1875
If we subtract 80 from 80, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3217.1875
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 3217.1875
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3217.1875 with a balance of 0.0.
