We're dividing 50871365 by 278 
We want to divide 50871365 by 278.

Going ahead to step 1:
278 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 50 / 278

Step 2:
278 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 50 and we're left with 50.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 508 / 278

Let's proceed to step 3:
278 goes into 508 1 times with a remainder of 230.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 278 from 508 to get 230.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 230 and continue: 2307 / 278

Let's proceed to step 4:
278 can be fit into 2307 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 83.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 2224 from 2307, we get 83.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 83 and continue with: 831 / 278

Advancing to step 5:
The number 278 fits into 831 2 times, leaving a remainder of 275.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 182.0
Subtracting 556 from 831 leaves us with 275.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 275 and repeat the process: 2753 / 278

On to step 6:
278 can be fit into 2753 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 251.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1829.0
The remainder is 251 after subtracting 2502 from 2753.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 251 and continue with: 2516 / 278

Step 7:
2516 divided by 278 is 9 with a remainder of 14.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18299.0
If we subtract 2502 from 2516, we get 14.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 145 / 278

Going ahead to step 8:
278 can be fit into 145 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 145.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 182990.0
Deduct 0 from 145 and we're left with 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 278 fits into 1450 5 times, leaving a remainder of 60.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 182990.5
Subtract 1390 from 1450 to get 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
278 goes into 600 2 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 182990.52
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 556 from 600.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 440 by 278, we get 1 with a remainder of 162.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 182990.521
Subtract 278 from 440 to get 162.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1620 by 278, we get 5 and a remainder of 230.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 182990.5215
Subtracting 1390 from 1620 leaves us with 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 278 fits into 2300 8 times, leaving a remainder of 76.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 182990.52158
Subtracting 2224 from 2300 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
760 divided by 278 is 2 with a remainder of 204.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 182990.521582
If we take 556 away from 760, we end up with 204.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2040, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 2040 by 278, we get 7 and a remainder of 94.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 182990.5215827
Deduct 1946 from 2040 and we're left with 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 278 fits into 940 3 times, leaving a remainder of 106.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 182990.52158273
If we take 834 away from 940, we end up with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 182990.52158273, with a leftover of 1.06e-07.
