We're dividing 51596 by 76 
We're looking to find how many times 76 goes into 51596.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 76, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 76

Going ahead to step 2:
76 goes into 51 0 times with a remainder of 51.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 51, we end up with 51.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 515 / 76

Going ahead to step 3:
76 can be fit into 515 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 59.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
The remainder is 59 after subtracting 456 from 515.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 59 and continue: 599 / 76

Going ahead to step 4:
599 divided by 76 is 7 with a remainder of 67.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 67.0
Subtracting 532 from 599 leaves us with 67.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 67 and continue with: 676 / 76

Moving on to step 5:
76 goes into 676 8 times with a remainder of 68.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 678.0
If we subtract 608 from 676, we get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 680 by 76, we get 8 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 678.8
If we subtract 608 from 680, we get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 76 fits into 720 9 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 678.89
Subtracting 684 from 720 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 76 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 56.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 678.894
If we subtract 304 from 360, we get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 76 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 678.8947
If we subtract 532 from 560, we 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.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 280 by 76, we get 3 and a remainder of 52.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 678.89473
If we take 228 away from 280, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 11:
520 divided by 76 is 6 with a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 678.894736
If we subtract 456 from 520, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 76 fits into 640 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 678.8947368
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 608 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 13:
76 goes into 320 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 678.89473684
If we subtract 304 from 320, 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.

Our division results in 678.89473684 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
