Let's divide 456997 by 49
We want to divide 456997 by 49.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 49, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 45 / 49

Step 2:
When dividing 45 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 45 and we're left with 45.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 456 / 49

On to step 3:
49 can be fit into 456 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 441 from 456 to get 15.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 15 and repeat the process: 159 / 49

On to step 4:
49 can be fit into 159 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 93.0
Deduct 147 from 159 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 129 / 49

On to step 5:
The number 49 fits into 129 2 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 932.0
Subtract 98 from 129 to get 31.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 317 / 49

On to step 6:
49 goes into 317 6 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9326.0
If we take 294 away from 317, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 49 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9326.4
Subtract 196 from 230 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
340 divided by 49 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9326.46
Subtract 294 from 340 to 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.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 460 by 49, we get 9 and a remainder of 19.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9326.469
If we take 441 away from 460, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 190 by 49, we get 3 and a remainder of 43.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9326.4693
Subtract 147 from 190 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
430 divided by 49 is 8 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9326.46938
If we subtract 392 from 430, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 49 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9326.469387
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 343 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
370 divided by 49 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9326.4693877
If we take 343 away from 370, we end up with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

The final result is 9326.4693877 with a remainder of 2.7e-07.
