Let's divide 11442981 by 501
Let's see how many times 501 fits into 11442981.

Step 1:
If we divide 1 by 501, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 11 / 501

Step 2:
The number 501 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 114 / 501

Step 3:
If we divide 114 by 501, we get 0 and a remainder of 114.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 114 leaves us with 114.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 114 and continue: 1144 / 501

Going ahead to step 4:
1144 divided by 501 is 2 with a remainder of 142.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 1002 from 1144 and we're left with 142.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 142 and repeat the process: 1422 / 501

Moving on to step 5:
1422 divided by 501 is 2 with a remainder of 420.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
If we take 1002 away from 1422, we end up with 420.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 420 and continue: 4209 / 501

Step 6:
If we divide 4209 by 501, we get 8 and a remainder of 201.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 228.0
If we take 4008 away from 4209, we end up with 201.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 201 and continue with: 2018 / 501

Step 7:
If we divide 2018 by 501, we get 4 and a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2284.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 2004 from 2018.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 141 / 501

Let's proceed to step 8:
501 goes into 141 0 times with a remainder of 141.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22840.0
Subtract 0 from 141 to get 141.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 501 fits into 1410 2 times, leaving a remainder of 408.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22840.2
Subtract 1002 from 1410 to get 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 4080 by 501, we get 8 with a remainder of 72.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 22840.28
If we take 4008 away from 4080, we end up with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 720 by 501, we get 1 and a remainder of 219.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22840.281
If we subtract 501 from 720, we get 219.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2190, and continue the process.

Step 12:
501 goes into 2190 4 times with a remainder of 186.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22840.2814
If we subtract 2004 from 2190, we get 186.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1860, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
1860 divided by 501 is 3 with a remainder of 357.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22840.28143
If we subtract 1503 from 1860, we get 357.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3570, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
3570 divided by 501 is 7 with a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 22840.281437
Deduct 3507 from 3570 and we're left with 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
630 divided by 501 is 1 with a remainder of 129.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22840.2814371
Subtracting 501 from 630 leaves us with 129.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
501 can be fit into 1290 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 288.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22840.28143712
The remainder is 288 after subtracting 1002 from 1290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2880, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 22840.28143712 with a balance of 2.88e-07.
