Let's divide 3742494 by 50
We want to divide 3742494 by 50.

Step 1:
If we divide 3 by 50, we get 0 and a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 37 / 50

On to step 2:
37 divided by 50 is 0 with a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 374 / 50

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 374 by 50, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 350 from 374.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 242 / 50

Advancing to step 4:
50 goes into 242 4 times with a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 200 from 242.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 424 / 50

Going ahead to step 5:
424 divided by 50 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 748.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 400 from 424.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 249 / 50

Step 6:
When dividing 249 by 50, we get 4 with a remainder of 49.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7484.0
Deduct 200 from 249 and we're left with 49.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 49, then repeat: 494 / 50

Advancing to step 7:
The number 50 fits into 494 9 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74849.0
Subtract 450 from 494 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 8:
50 goes into 440 8 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74849.8
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 400 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 50 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74849.88
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 400 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 74849.88 with a remaining 0.0.
