We divide 686903 by 49
We want to divide 686903 by 49.

Step 1:
49 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 6, we end up with 6.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 68 / 49

Advancing to step 2:
49 can be fit into 68 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 49 from 68 and we're left with 19.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 196 / 49

Step 3:
49 can be fit into 196 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 196 away from 196, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 49

On to step 4:
When dividing 9 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 140.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 90 / 49

Going ahead to step 5:
49 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 41.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1401.0
Deduct 49 from 90 and we're left with 41.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 413 / 49

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 413 by 49, we get 8 with a remainder of 21.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14018.0
Deduct 392 from 413 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 210 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14018.4
Subtract 196 from 210 to get 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 8:
140 divided by 49 is 2 with a remainder of 42.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14018.42
If we subtract 98 from 140, we 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.

On to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 49, we get 8 and a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14018.428
Subtracting 392 from 420 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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 49 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14018.4285
Subtract 245 from 280 to 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 11:
350 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 14018.42857
Deduct 343 from 350 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
49 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 14018.428571
Subtracting 49 from 70 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 210 by 49, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14018.4285714
Subtract 196 from 210 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 49 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14018.42857142
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 98 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14018.42857142 and a remainder of 4.2e-08.
