We're dividing 49971098 by 981 
We're looking to find how many times 981 goes into 49971098.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 981, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 981

Going ahead to step 2:
981 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 49 and we're left with 49.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 49 and continue: 499 / 981

Step 3:
The number 981 fits into 499 0 times, leaving a remainder of 499.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 499 to get 499.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 499 and repeat the process: 4997 / 981

Step 4:
981 can be fit into 4997 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 92.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 4905 from 4997 to get 92.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 92 and repeat the process: 921 / 981

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 921 by 981, we get 0 and a remainder of 921.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we subtract 0 from 921, we get 921.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 921, then carry on: 9210 / 981

Advancing to step 6:
981 can be fit into 9210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 381.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 509.0
The remainder is 381 after subtracting 8829 from 9210.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 381 and continue: 3819 / 981

On to step 7:
3819 divided by 981 is 3 with a remainder of 876.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5093.0
If we take 2943 away from 3819, we end up with 876.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 876, then repeat: 8768 / 981

On to step 8:
8768 divided by 981 is 8 with a remainder of 920.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50938.0
The remainder is 920 after subtracting 7848 from 8768.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
9200 divided by 981 is 9 with a remainder of 371.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50938.9
Subtract 8829 from 9200 to get 371.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3710, and continue the process.

Step 10:
981 can be fit into 3710 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 767.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 50938.93
Deduct 2943 from 3710 and we're left with 767.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7670, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
981 can be fit into 7670 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 803.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50938.937
The remainder is 803 after subtracting 6867 from 7670.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8030, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 981 fits into 8030 8 times, leaving a remainder of 182.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50938.9378
If we subtract 7848 from 8030, we get 182.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1820, and continue the process.

Step 13:
981 goes into 1820 1 times with a remainder of 839.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50938.93781
The remainder is 839 after subtracting 981 from 1820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
981 can be fit into 8390 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 542.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50938.937818
Subtract 7848 from 8390 to get 542.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 5420 by 981, we get 5 with a remainder of 515.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 50938.9378185
The remainder is 515 after subtracting 4905 from 5420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
981 can be fit into 5150 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 245.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 50938.93781855
If we take 4905 away from 5150, we end up with 245.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2450, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 50938.93781855, with a leftover of 2.45e-07.
