90872 divided by 51 
Our goal is to divide 90872 by 51.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 90 / 51

On to step 2:
51 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 51 from 90 and we're left with 39.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 398 / 51

Moving on to step 3:
The number 51 fits into 398 7 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 357 from 398 and we're left with 41.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 417 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
51 can be fit into 417 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 178.0
Subtracting 408 from 417 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 92 / 51

Step 5:
If we divide 92 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 41.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1781.0
If we subtract 51 from 92, we get 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 6:
51 goes into 410 8 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1781.8
If we subtract 408 from 410, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 51 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1781.8
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
200 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 47.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1781.803
Deduct 153 from 200 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 470 by 51, we get 9 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1781.8039
If we subtract 459 from 470, we 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 51 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1781.80392
Subtract 102 from 110 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 80 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1781.803921
Subtract 51 from 80 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 290 by 51, we get 5 with a remainder of 35.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1781.8039215
Subtracting 255 from 290 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 350 by 51, we get 6 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1781.80392156
Subtract 306 from 350 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1781.80392156, and the remainder is 4.4e-08.
