We divide 12051507 by 497
Our goal is to divide 12051507 by 497.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 497, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 497

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 497 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 12, we get 12.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 120 / 497

Let's proceed to step 3:
120 divided by 497 is 0 with a remainder of 120.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 120, we end up with 120.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 120, then repeat: 1205 / 497

Step 4:
497 goes into 1205 2 times with a remainder of 211.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 211 after subtracting 994 from 1205.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 211 and continue: 2111 / 497

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 2111 by 497, we get 4 and a remainder of 123.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Deduct 1988 from 2111 and we're left with 123.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 123, then repeat: 1235 / 497

Step 6:
497 goes into 1235 2 times with a remainder of 241.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 242.0
Deduct 994 from 1235 and we're left with 241.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 241, then repeat: 2410 / 497

Step 7:
497 can be fit into 2410 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 422.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2424.0
If we subtract 1988 from 2410, we get 422.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 422, then repeat: 4227 / 497

Moving on to step 8:
497 can be fit into 4227 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 251.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24248.0
If we take 3976 away from 4227, we end up with 251.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2510, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
497 can be fit into 2510 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24248.5
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 2485 from 2510.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 250 by 497, we get 0 and a remainder of 250.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 24248.5
The remainder is 250 after subtracting 0 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 2500 by 497, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24248.505
Subtract 2485 from 2500 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 12:
497 goes into 150 0 times with a remainder of 150.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 24248.505
Deduct 0 from 150 and we're left with 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 1500 by 497, we get 3 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24248.50503
Subtracting 1491 from 1500 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
497 goes into 90 0 times with a remainder of 90.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24248.50503
If we subtract 0 from 90, we get 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
900 divided by 497 is 1 with a remainder of 403.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 24248.5050301
The remainder is 403 after subtracting 497 from 900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4030, and continue the process.

Step 16:
4030 divided by 497 is 8 with a remainder of 54.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24248.50503018
Subtracting 3976 from 4030 leaves us with 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 24248.50503018 with a balance of 5.4e-08.
