We divide 740276 by 51
Our goal is to divide 740276 by 51.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 51 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 74 / 51

Going ahead to step 2:
51 goes into 74 1 times with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 51 from 74.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 230 / 51

On to step 3:
When dividing 230 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 204 from 230 leaves us with 26.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 26, then carry on: 262 / 51

Moving on to step 4:
51 can be fit into 262 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 145.0
If we take 255 away from 262, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 51

Moving on to step 5:
The number 51 fits into 77 1 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1451.0
If we take 51 away from 77, we end up with 26.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 266 / 51

On to step 6:
If we divide 266 by 51, we get 5 and a remainder of 11.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14515.0
Subtract 255 from 266 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 51 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14515.2
Subtracting 102 from 110 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
51 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14515.21
If we subtract 51 from 80, we 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.

Step 9:
51 can be fit into 290 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 14515.215
If we take 255 away from 290, we end up with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 10:
51 goes into 350 6 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14515.2156
Subtracting 306 from 350 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 11:
51 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14515.21568
Subtract 408 from 440 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 51 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14515.215686
If we take 306 away from 320, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 140 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14515.2156862
Deduct 102 from 140 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
51 goes into 380 7 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 14515.21568627
If we take 357 away from 380, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14515.21568627 and a remainder of 2.3e-08.
