We divide 234942 by 51
Our goal is to divide 234942 by 51.

Going ahead to step 1:
51 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 51

Advancing to step 2:
The number 51 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 234 / 51

Step 3:
When dividing 234 by 51, we get 4 with a remainder of 30.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 204 from 234 and we're left with 30.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 309 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
51 goes into 309 6 times with a remainder of 3.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 306 from 309.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 34 / 51

Going ahead to step 5:
34 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 34.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 460.0
If we subtract 0 from 34, we get 34.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 342 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
342 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 36.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4606.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 306 from 342.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
51 goes into 360 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4606.7
If we subtract 357 from 360, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
30 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4606.7
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 300 by 51, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4606.705
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 255 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
450 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4606.7058
If we take 408 away from 450, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 51 fits into 420 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4606.70588
Subtracting 408 from 420 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4606.70588 with a balance of 1.2e-05.
