Let's divide 12701 by 50
We're looking to find how many times 50 goes into 12701.

Step 1:
50 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 50

On to step 2:
50 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 50

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 127 by 50, we get 2 and a remainder of 27.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 100 from 127 to get 27.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 270 / 50

Step 4:
50 can be fit into 270 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
If we subtract 250 from 270, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 201 / 50

Moving on to step 5:
The number 50 fits into 201 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 254.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 200 from 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
The number 50 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 254.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 100 by 50, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 254.02
Subtract 100 from 100 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 8:
0 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 254.02
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 9:
50 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 254.02
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 254.02 with a balance of 0.0.
