We look at the division of 878918 by 50 
Let's see how many times 50 fits into 878918.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 50 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 50

Step 2:
When dividing 87 by 50, we get 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 50 from 87, we get 37.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 378 / 50

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 378 by 50, we get 7 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we subtract 350 from 378, we get 28.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 289 / 50

Step 4:
The number 50 fits into 289 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 175.0
Deduct 250 from 289 and we're left with 39.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 391 / 50

Moving on to step 5:
50 goes into 391 7 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1757.0
If we subtract 350 from 391, we get 41.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 418 / 50

Going ahead to step 6:
50 can be fit into 418 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17578.0
If we take 400 away from 418, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 7:
180 divided by 50 is 3 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17578.3
Deduct 150 from 180 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 300 by 50, we get 6 and a remainder of 0.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17578.36
If we take 300 away from 300, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
0 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17578.36
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
0 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17578.36
If we subtract 0 from 0, we 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.

Our division results in 17578.36 with a remaining 0.0.
