We divide 203231 by 49
We want to figure out the number of times 203231 can be divided by 49.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 49

Moving on to step 2:
The number 49 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 203 / 49

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 203 by 49, we get 4 and a remainder of 7.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 196 from 203, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 49

Advancing to step 4:
49 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 49 from 72, we get 23.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 233 / 49

On to step 5:
49 goes into 233 4 times with a remainder of 37.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 414.0
If we subtract 196 from 233, we get 37.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 371 / 49

Moving on to step 6:
371 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 28.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4147.0
Deduct 343 from 371 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 7:
49 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4147.5
If we subtract 245 from 280, we 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.

Moving on to step 8:
350 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4147.57
If we subtract 343 from 350, we get 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 9:
If we divide 70 by 49, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4147.571
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 49 from 70.
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 10:
49 can be fit into 210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4147.5714
Deduct 196 from 210 and we're left 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 11:
49 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4147.57142
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.

Moving on to step 12:
420 divided by 49 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4147.571428
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.

Step 13:
When dividing 280 by 49, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4147.5714285
If we take 245 away from 280, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
49 can be fit into 350 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4147.57142857
If we take 343 away from 350, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 4147.57142857, and the remainder is 7e-09.
