We look at the division of 724201 by 51 
We want to divide 724201 by 51.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 51

Moving on to step 2:
51 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 51 away from 72, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 214 / 51

On to step 3:
When dividing 214 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 204 from 214, we get 10.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 102 / 51

On to step 4:
51 goes into 102 2 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 142.0
Subtract 102 from 102 to get 0.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 0 / 51

On to step 5:
51 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1420.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 51

On to step 6:
If we divide 1 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 14200.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
10 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 14200.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 51 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 14200.01
Deduct 51 from 100 and we're left with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
490 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14200.019
If we take 459 away from 490, we end up with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
310 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14200.0196
If we take 306 away from 310, 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.

On to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14200.0196
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 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 12:
If we divide 400 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 43.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14200.019607
Deduct 357 from 400 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 51 fits into 430 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14200.0196078
Subtracting 408 from 430 leaves us 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.

Step 14:
220 divided by 51 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14200.01960784
If we take 204 away from 220, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 14200.01960784 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
