Let's divide 51877284 by 218
We want to divide 51877284 by 218.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 218 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 218

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 51 by 218, we get 0 with a remainder of 51.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 51, we get 51.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 518 / 218

Advancing to step 3:
218 goes into 518 2 times with a remainder of 82.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 436 from 518 leaves us with 82.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 82, then repeat: 827 / 218

Moving on to step 4:
827 divided by 218 is 3 with a remainder of 173.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 654 away from 827, we end up with 173.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 173 and repeat the process: 1737 / 218

On to step 5:
When dividing 1737 by 218, we get 7 with a remainder of 211.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 237.0
The remainder is 211 after subtracting 1526 from 1737.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 211 and continue: 2112 / 218

Step 6:
The number 218 fits into 2112 9 times, leaving a remainder of 150.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2379.0
Subtracting 1962 from 2112 leaves us with 150.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 150 and continue: 1508 / 218

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 1508 by 218, we get 6 and a remainder of 200.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23796.0
Deduct 1308 from 1508 and we're left with 200.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 200, then repeat: 2004 / 218

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 2004 by 218, we get 9 with a remainder of 42.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 237969.0
If we take 1962 away from 2004, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
218 can be fit into 420 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 202.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 237969.1
Subtract 218 from 420 to get 202.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2020, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
218 can be fit into 2020 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 237969.19
If we take 1962 away from 2020, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
580 divided by 218 is 2 with a remainder of 144.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 237969.192
Subtracting 436 from 580 leaves us with 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
218 can be fit into 1440 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 237969.1926
Subtracting 1308 from 1440 leaves us with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 1320 by 218, we get 6 and a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 237969.19266
If we take 1308 away from 1320, we end up 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.

The final result is 237969.19266 with a remainder of 1.2e-05.
