Let's divide 582508 by 51
We want to divide 582508 by 51.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 58 / 51

On to step 2:
51 can be fit into 58 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 51 from 58 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 51

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 72 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 51 from 72, we get 21.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 215 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 215 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 11.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 114.0
Deduct 204 from 215 and we're left with 11.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 110 / 51

Step 5:
When dividing 110 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1142.0
If we subtract 102 from 110, we get 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 51

On to step 6:
If we divide 88 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 37.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11421.0
If we subtract 51 from 88, we 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.

On to step 7:
If we divide 370 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11421.7
Subtract 357 from 370 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
51 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11421.72
If we subtract 102 from 130, we get 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 9:
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: 11421.725
If we subtract 255 from 280, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
51 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11421.7254
Subtracting 204 from 250 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 51 fits into 460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11421.72549
Subtracting 459 from 460 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
51 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 11421.72549
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 51 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11421.7254901
Subtracting 51 from 100 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 490 by 51, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11421.72549019
Deduct 459 from 490 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

The final result is 11421.72549019 with a remainder of 3.1e-08.
