We divide 503831 by 12
Our goal is to divide 503831 by 12.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 5 by 12, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 50 / 12

Advancing to step 2:
The number 12 fits into 50 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 48 from 50 to get 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 12

Let's proceed to step 3:
23 divided by 12 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
Subtract 12 from 23 to get 11.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 12

On to step 4:
The number 12 fits into 118 9 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 419.0
If we take 108 away from 118, we end up with 10.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 10 and repeat the process: 103 / 12

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 103 by 12, we get 8 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4198.0
If we subtract 96 from 103, we get 7.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 71 / 12

Step 6:
12 can be fit into 71 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41985.0
Subtracting 60 from 71 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 12, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41985.9
Subtract 108 from 110 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
12 goes into 20 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 41985.91
If we subtract 12 from 20, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
12 can be fit into 80 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 41985.916
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
12 can be fit into 80 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 41985.9166
If we subtract 72 from 80, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 41985.9166 with a remaining 8e-05.
