We're dividing 708478 by 50 
Let's see how many times 50 fits into 708478.

Step 1:
50 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 70 / 50

On to step 2:
When dividing 70 by 50, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 50 away from 70, we end up with 20.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 208 / 50

Going ahead to step 3:
50 goes into 208 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 200 from 208 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 50

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 84 by 50, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141.0
Subtracting 50 from 84 leaves us with 34.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 347 / 50

Advancing to step 5:
50 can be fit into 347 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1416.0
Subtracting 300 from 347 leaves us with 47.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 478 / 50

Advancing to step 6:
The number 50 fits into 478 9 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14169.0
If we take 450 away from 478, 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.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 280 by 50, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14169.5
Subtract 250 from 280 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 8:
50 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14169.56
Subtract 300 from 300 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 0 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14169.56
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 50, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14169.56
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 14169.56, and the remainder is 0.0.
