Let's divide 50261 by 9
Our goal is to divide 50261 by 9.

Advancing to step 1:
5 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 9

Advancing to step 2:
9 goes into 50 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 45 away from 50, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 9

On to step 3:
9 can be fit into 52 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 45 from 52, we get 7.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 76 / 9

Advancing to step 4:
9 goes into 76 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 558.0
Subtract 72 from 76 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 41 / 9

On to step 5:
When dividing 41 by 9, we get 4 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5584.0
If we subtract 36 from 41, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 6:
If we divide 50 by 9, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5584.5
If we take 45 away from 50, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 50 by 9, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5584.55
Subtract 45 from 50 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5584.55 with a remaining 0.005.
