We look at the division of 978162 by 51 
We want to figure out the number of times 978162 can be divided by 51.

On to step 1:
51 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 51

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 46.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 51 from 97.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 468 / 51

Going ahead to step 3:
468 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 459 from 468, we get 9.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 91 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
51 goes into 91 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 191.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 51 from 91.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 406 / 51

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 406 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1917.0
Deduct 357 from 406 and we're left with 49.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 492 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
51 can be fit into 492 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19179.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 459 from 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 51 fits into 330 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19179.6
Subtract 306 from 330 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
240 divided by 51 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19179.64
Subtracting 204 from 240 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 51 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19179.647
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 357 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
51 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19179.647
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 300 by 51, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19179.64705
Subtract 255 from 300 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 450 by 51, we get 8 and a remainder of 42.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19179.647058
If we take 408 away from 450, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
51 goes into 420 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19179.6470588
Subtract 408 from 420 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final result is 19179.6470588 with a remainder of 1.2e-07.
