500785 ÷ 51 
We're looking to find how many times 51 goes into 500785.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 50 / 51

Let's proceed to step 2:
50 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 50, then carry on: 500 / 51

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 500 by 51, we get 9 and a remainder of 41.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 459 from 500 leaves us with 41.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 417 / 51

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 417 by 51, we get 8 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtract 408 from 417 to get 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
51 can be fit into 98 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 981.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 51 from 98.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 475 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 51 fits into 475 9 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9819.0
Deduct 459 from 475 and we're left 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.

On to step 7:
160 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9819.3
If we subtract 153 from 160, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 51 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9819.31
Deduct 51 from 70 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
51 can be fit into 190 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9819.313
Subtract 153 from 190 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 10:
51 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9819.3137
Subtracting 357 from 370 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
51 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9819.31372
If we take 102 away from 130, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 280 by 51, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9819.313725
Subtracting 255 from 280 leaves us with 25.
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 13:
51 can be fit into 250 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9819.3137254
If we subtract 204 from 250, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Step 14:
51 goes into 460 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9819.31372549
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 459 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

The final result is 9819.31372549 with a remainder of 1e-09.
