257919 ÷ 50 
We want to divide 257919 by 50.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 50 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 25 / 50

On to step 2:
50 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 25 to get 25.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 257 / 50

Let's proceed to step 3:
50 goes into 257 5 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 250 from 257 to get 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 50

Step 4:
If we divide 79 by 50, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we take 50 away from 79, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 291 / 50

Advancing to step 5:
50 goes into 291 5 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 515.0
Subtracting 250 from 291 leaves us with 41.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 419 / 50

Advancing to step 6:
419 divided by 50 is 8 with a remainder of 19.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5158.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 400 from 419.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 50 fits into 190 3 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5158.3
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 150 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
400 divided by 50 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5158.38
Subtract 400 from 400 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 0 by 50, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5158.38
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5158.38
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5158.38 with a balance of 0.0.
