Let's divide 218677 by 49
Our goal is to divide 218677 by 49.

Let's proceed to step 1:
49 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 49

On to step 2:
The number 49 fits into 21 0 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 49

Step 3:
If we divide 218 by 49, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 196 from 218.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 226 / 49

Going ahead to step 4:
49 goes into 226 4 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 196 away from 226, we end up with 30.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 307 / 49

Step 5:
307 divided by 49 is 6 with a remainder of 13.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 446.0
If we take 294 away from 307, we end up with 13.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 137 / 49

Let's proceed to step 6:
49 goes into 137 2 times with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4462.0
Deduct 98 from 137 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 390 7 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4462.7
If we take 343 away from 390, we end up with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 49 fits into 470 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4462.79
Subtract 441 from 470 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 290 by 49, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4462.795
Deduct 245 from 290 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 450 by 49, we get 9 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4462.7959
Subtract 441 from 450 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
49 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4462.79591
Subtracting 49 from 90 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 49 fits into 410 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4462.795918
Subtracting 392 from 410 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 13:
49 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4462.7959183
Subtracting 147 from 180 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
49 can be fit into 330 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4462.79591836
Deduct 294 from 330 and we're left 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.

The quotient of the division is 4462.79591836, and the remainder is 3.6e-08.
