285514 ÷ 51 
We want to divide 285514 by 51.

Step 1:
51 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 51

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 28 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 285 / 51

Moving on to step 3:
51 goes into 285 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 255 from 285.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 305 / 51

Advancing to step 4:
The number 51 fits into 305 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 255 from 305.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 50 and continue with: 501 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 51 fits into 501 9 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 559.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 459 from 501.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 424 / 51

Going ahead to step 6:
51 can be fit into 424 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5598.0
If we take 408 away from 424, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
160 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5598.3
If we take 153 away from 160, 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 70 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5598.31
Subtracting 51 from 70 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 190 by 51, we get 3 with a remainder of 37.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5598.313
Subtract 153 from 190 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
370 divided by 51 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5598.3137
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 357 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 130 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5598.31372
Subtracting 102 from 130 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.

Advancing to step 12:
51 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5598.313725
Deduct 255 from 280 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
250 divided by 51 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5598.3137254
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 204 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
460 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5598.31372549
Deduct 459 from 460 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5598.31372549 with a balance of 1e-09.
