Let's divide 512273 by 24
Our goal is to divide 512273 by 24.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 24, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 24

On to step 2:
24 goes into 51 2 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 48 from 51, we get 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 24

Step 3:
The number 24 fits into 32 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21.0
Deduct 24 from 32 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 82 / 24

Moving on to step 4:
24 can be fit into 82 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 213.0
If we take 72 away from 82, we end up with 10.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 107 / 24

Moving on to step 5:
The number 24 fits into 107 4 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2134.0
Deduct 96 from 107 and we're left with 11.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 113 / 24

Step 6:
The number 24 fits into 113 4 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 21344.0
Subtract 96 from 113 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
24 goes into 170 7 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21344.7
If we subtract 168 from 170, 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.

On to step 8:
24 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21344.7
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 9:
24 goes into 200 8 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21344.708
Subtract 192 from 200 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.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 24 fits into 80 3 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 21344.7083
Subtract 72 from 80 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.

On to step 11:
The number 24 fits into 80 3 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21344.70833
If we take 72 away from 80, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21344.70833 with a remaining 8e-06.
