We divide 250872 by 50
We want to divide 250872 by 50.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 50 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 25 / 50

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 25 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 250 / 50

Let's proceed to step 3:
250 divided by 50 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 250 from 250.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 50

Moving on to step 4:
8 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 50

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 50 fits into 87 1 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 501.0
Subtracting 50 from 87 leaves us with 37.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 372 / 50

On to step 6:
The number 50 fits into 372 7 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5017.0
If we take 350 away from 372, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
50 can be fit into 220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5017.4
If we take 200 away from 220, we end up 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.

On to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 50, we get 4 with a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5017.44
If we subtract 200 from 200, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5017.44 with a balance of 0.0.
