We're dividing 971378 by 51 
We want to figure out the number of times 971378 can be divided by 51.

Let's proceed to step 1:
51 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 (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 51

Step 2:
If we divide 97 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 51 from 97, we get 46.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 51

Advancing to step 3:
461 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
Deduct 459 from 461 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 51

Moving on to step 4:
51 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 190.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 237 / 51

Step 5:
237 divided by 51 is 4 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1904.0
Subtracting 204 from 237 leaves us with 33.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 338 / 51

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 51 fits into 338 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19046.0
If we subtract 306 from 338, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
51 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19046.6
If we subtract 306 from 320, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
51 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 19046.62
Deduct 102 from 140 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 380 by 51, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19046.627
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 357 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 51 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19046.6274
Subtracting 204 from 230 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 260 by 51, we get 5 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19046.62745
Deduct 255 from 260 and we're left 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 12:
The number 51 fits into 50 0 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19046.62745
Subtracting 0 from 50 leaves us with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
500 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19046.6274509
Subtracting 459 from 500 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
51 goes into 410 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19046.62745098
Deduct 408 from 410 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Our division results in 19046.62745098 with a remaining 2e-09.
