99971 ÷ 49 
We're looking to find how many times 49 goes into 99971.

Going ahead to step 1:
49 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 49

Moving on to step 2:
The number 49 fits into 99 2 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 98 from 99 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 19 / 49

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 19 by 49, we get 0 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 19, we get 19.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 197 / 49

Step 4:
The number 49 fits into 197 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 204.0
Deduct 196 from 197 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 49

Advancing to step 5:
The number 49 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2040.0
Subtract 0 from 11 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.

Step 6:
If we divide 110 by 49, we get 2 and a remainder of 12.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2040.2
If we take 98 away from 110, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2040.22
If we take 98 away from 120, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 2040.22 with a balance of 0.022.
