2486961 divided by 508 
We're looking to find how many times 508 goes into 2486961.

On to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 508, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 508

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 508, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 24, we get 24.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 248 / 508

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 248 by 508, we get 0 with a remainder of 248.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 248 after subtracting 0 from 248.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 248, then repeat: 2486 / 508

Advancing to step 4:
508 goes into 2486 4 times with a remainder of 454.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 454 after subtracting 2032 from 2486.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 454 and continue with: 4549 / 508

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 4549 by 508, we get 8 and a remainder of 485.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 4064 from 4549 leaves us with 485.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 485 and repeat the process: 4856 / 508

Going ahead to step 6:
508 goes into 4856 9 times with a remainder of 284.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 489.0
If we subtract 4572 from 4856, we get 284.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 284, then repeat: 2841 / 508

Step 7:
2841 divided by 508 is 5 with a remainder of 301.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4895.0
Subtracting 2540 from 2841 leaves us with 301.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3010, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 508 fits into 3010 5 times, leaving a remainder of 470.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4895.5
If we subtract 2540 from 3010, we get 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4700, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 4700 by 508, we get 9 with a remainder of 128.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4895.59
Subtracting 4572 from 4700 leaves us with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
1280 divided by 508 is 2 with a remainder of 264.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4895.592
If we take 1016 away from 1280, we end up with 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
508 can be fit into 2640 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4895.5925
If we subtract 2540 from 2640, we get 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
1000 divided by 508 is 1 with a remainder of 492.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4895.59251
Subtracting 508 from 1000 leaves us with 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 4920 by 508, we get 9 and a remainder of 348.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4895.592519
If we take 4572 away from 4920, we end up with 348.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3480, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
508 can be fit into 3480 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 432.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4895.5925196
Subtract 3048 from 3480 to get 432.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
508 goes into 4320 8 times with a remainder of 256.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4895.59251968
If we subtract 4064 from 4320, we get 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4895.59251968 and a remainder of 2.56e-07.
