Let's divide 50656937 by 257
We're looking to find how many times 257 goes into 50656937.

Advancing to step 1:
257 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 257

Let's proceed to step 2:
50 divided by 257 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 50, then repeat: 506 / 257

Moving on to step 3:
506 divided by 257 is 1 with a remainder of 249.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 257 from 506, we get 249.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 249, then repeat: 2495 / 257

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 2495 by 257, we get 9 and a remainder of 182.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 182 after subtracting 2313 from 2495.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 182, then repeat: 1826 / 257

Let's proceed to step 5:
257 can be fit into 1826 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 197.0
Subtracting 1799 from 1826 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 279 / 257

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 257 fits into 279 1 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1971.0
Deduct 257 from 279 and we're left with 22.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 223 / 257

On to step 7:
The number 257 fits into 223 0 times, leaving a remainder of 223.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19710.0
The remainder is 223 after subtracting 0 from 223.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 223, then repeat: 2237 / 257

On to step 8:
When dividing 2237 by 257, we get 8 with a remainder of 181.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197108.0
If we subtract 2056 from 2237, we get 181.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1810, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 1810 by 257, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 197108.7
Subtract 1799 from 1810 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 10:
110 divided by 257 is 0 with a remainder of 110.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197108.7
If we subtract 0 from 110, we get 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 257 fits into 1100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 72.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197108.704
The remainder is 72 after subtracting 1028 from 1100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
257 goes into 720 2 times with a remainder of 206.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 197108.7042
Subtracting 514 from 720 leaves us with 206.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 257 fits into 2060 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 197108.70428
If we take 2056 away from 2060, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
257 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 197108.70428
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
If we divide 400 by 257, we get 1 and a remainder of 143.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 197108.7042801
Subtracting 257 from 400 leaves us with 143.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1430, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
257 goes into 1430 5 times with a remainder of 145.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197108.70428015
Subtract 1285 from 1430 to get 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Our division results in 197108.70428015 with a remaining 1.45e-07.
