Let's divide 74901971 by 51
Our goal is to divide 74901971 by 51.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 51

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 23.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 51 from 74 to get 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 51

Moving on to step 3:
The number 51 fits into 239 4 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 204 from 239, we get 35.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 350 / 51

Moving on to step 4:
350 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 146.0
Deduct 306 from 350 and we're left with 44.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 441 / 51

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 441 by 51, we get 8 and a remainder of 33.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1468.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 408 from 441.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 339 / 51

Moving on to step 6:
51 goes into 339 6 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14686.0
Subtracting 306 from 339 leaves us with 33.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 337 / 51

Step 7:
337 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146866.0
Subtracting 306 from 337 leaves us with 31.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 311 / 51

On to step 8:
311 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1468666.0
Deduct 306 from 311 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 50 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1468666.0
Subtract 0 from 50 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 500 by 51, we get 9 with a remainder of 41.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1468666.09
If we take 459 away from 500, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
51 can be fit into 410 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1468666.098
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 408 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
51 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1468666.098
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 51 fits into 200 3 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1468666.09803
Deduct 153 from 200 and we're left with 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
51 goes into 470 9 times with a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1468666.098039
Deduct 459 from 470 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 110 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1468666.0980392
Deduct 102 from 110 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
If we divide 80 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1468666.09803921
Subtracting 51 from 80 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

The final result is 1468666.09803921 with a remainder of 2.9e-08.
