We divide 51077838 by 998
Let's see how many times 998 fits into 51077838.

Step 1:
998 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 51 / 998

Step 2:
51 divided by 998 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 51 after subtracting 0 from 51.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 510 / 998

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 510 by 998, we get 0 with a remainder of 510.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 510, we end up with 510.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 510 and continue: 5107 / 998

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 998 fits into 5107 5 times, leaving a remainder of 117.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 117 after subtracting 4990 from 5107.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 117, then repeat: 1177 / 998

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1177 by 998, we get 1 with a remainder of 179.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtract 998 from 1177 to get 179.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 179 and continue with: 1798 / 998

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1798 by 998, we get 1 with a remainder of 800.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 511.0
The remainder is 800 after subtracting 998 from 1798.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 800 and repeat the process: 8003 / 998

Moving on to step 7:
998 goes into 8003 8 times with a remainder of 19.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5118.0
Deduct 7984 from 8003 and we're left with 19.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 198 / 998

Moving on to step 8:
998 goes into 198 0 times with a remainder of 198.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51180.0
The remainder is 198 after subtracting 0 from 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 1980 by 998, we get 1 with a remainder of 982.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51180.1
The remainder is 982 after subtracting 998 from 1980.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9820, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 998 fits into 9820 9 times, leaving a remainder of 838.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51180.19
Subtract 8982 from 9820 to get 838.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8380, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 8380 by 998, we get 8 and a remainder of 396.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51180.198
If we take 7984 away from 8380, we end up with 396.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3960, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 3960 by 998, we get 3 and a remainder of 966.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51180.1983
If we subtract 2994 from 3960, we get 966.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9660, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
998 goes into 9660 9 times with a remainder of 678.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 51180.19839
Deduct 8982 from 9660 and we're left with 678.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6780, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
6780 divided by 998 is 6 with a remainder of 792.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51180.198396
Deduct 5988 from 6780 and we're left with 792.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7920, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
998 goes into 7920 7 times with a remainder of 934.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51180.1983967
If we subtract 6986 from 7920, we get 934.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9340, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
998 can be fit into 9340 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 358.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51180.19839679
The remainder is 358 after subtracting 8982 from 9340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 51180.19839679 with a balance of 3.58e-07.
