51594959 ÷ 218 
Our goal is to divide 51594959 by 218.

On to step 1:
218 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 218

Let's proceed to step 2:
218 can be fit into 51 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 51, we end up with 51.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 515 / 218

Let's proceed to step 3:
515 divided by 218 is 2 with a remainder of 79.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 436 from 515, we get 79.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 79 and repeat the process: 799 / 218

Let's proceed to step 4:
799 divided by 218 is 3 with a remainder of 145.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we subtract 654 from 799, we get 145.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 145 and repeat the process: 1454 / 218

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1454 by 218, we get 6 with a remainder of 146.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 236.0
If we take 1308 away from 1454, we end up with 146.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 146, then carry on: 1469 / 218

Step 6:
The number 218 fits into 1469 6 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2366.0
The remainder is 161 after subtracting 1308 from 1469.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 161 and continue: 1615 / 218

Going ahead to step 7:
1615 divided by 218 is 7 with a remainder of 89.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 23667.0
If we take 1526 away from 1615, we end up with 89.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 89, then carry on: 899 / 218

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 899 by 218, we get 4 with a remainder of 27.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 236674.0
Subtracting 872 from 899 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
218 can be fit into 270 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 52.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 236674.1
If we take 218 away from 270, we end up with 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 218 fits into 520 2 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 236674.12
The remainder is 84 after subtracting 436 from 520.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
218 goes into 840 3 times with a remainder of 186.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 236674.123
If we subtract 654 from 840, 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.

Step 12:
218 can be fit into 1860 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 116.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 236674.1238
Subtracting 1744 from 1860 leaves us with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
1160 divided by 218 is 5 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 236674.12385
Deduct 1090 from 1160 and we're left with 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
When dividing 700 by 218, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 236674.123853
If we take 654 away from 700, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 460 by 218, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 236674.1238532
Subtracting 436 from 460 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
When dividing 240 by 218, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 236674.12385321
Deduct 218 from 240 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

The final result is 236674.12385321 with a remainder of 2.2e-08.
