288488 ÷ 51 
Our goal is to divide 288488 by 51.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 51

Advancing to step 2:
28 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 51

On to step 3:
When dividing 288 by 51, we get 5 with a remainder of 33.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 255 from 288.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 334 / 51

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 334 by 51, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 56.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 306 from 334.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 288 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
288 divided by 51 is 5 with a remainder of 33.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 565.0
If we subtract 255 from 288, we get 33.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 338 / 51

Advancing to step 6:
338 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5656.0
If we subtract 306 from 338, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
320 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5656.6
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 306 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
51 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5656.62
If we subtract 102 from 140, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 380 by 51, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5656.627
Subtracting 357 from 380 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
51 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5656.6274
Subtracting 204 from 230 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 11:
51 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5656.62745
Subtracting 255 from 260 leaves us 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 50 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5656.62745
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 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 13:
51 goes into 500 9 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5656.6274509
Subtract 459 from 500 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
51 goes into 410 8 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5656.62745098
Subtracting 408 from 410 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5656.62745098 and a remainder of 2e-09.
