We look at the division of 51372976 by 140 
We're looking to find how many times 140 goes into 51372976.

Going ahead to step 1:
140 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 140

Step 2:
The number 140 fits into 51 0 times, leaving a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 51, we get 51.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 513 / 140

On to step 3:
140 goes into 513 3 times with a remainder of 93.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 420 from 513, we get 93.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 93 and continue with: 937 / 140

Going ahead to step 4:
937 divided by 140 is 6 with a remainder of 97.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 840 away from 937, we end up with 97.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 97, then repeat: 972 / 140

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 972 by 140, we get 6 and a remainder of 132.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 366.0
Subtract 840 from 972 to get 132.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 132 and repeat the process: 1329 / 140

Step 6:
The number 140 fits into 1329 9 times, leaving a remainder of 69.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3669.0
The remainder is 69 after subtracting 1260 from 1329.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 69 and repeat the process: 697 / 140

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 697 by 140, we get 4 with a remainder of 137.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36694.0
If we subtract 560 from 697, we get 137.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 137, then carry on: 1376 / 140

Advancing to step 8:
1376 divided by 140 is 9 with a remainder of 116.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366949.0
Subtract 1260 from 1376 to get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
1160 divided by 140 is 8 with a remainder of 40.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 366949.8
If we subtract 1120 from 1160, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
400 divided by 140 is 2 with a remainder of 120.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366949.82
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 280 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 1200 by 140, we get 8 with a remainder of 80.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 366949.828
Subtracting 1120 from 1200 leaves us with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 800 by 140, we get 5 with a remainder of 100.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366949.8285
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 700 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
140 goes into 1000 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 366949.82857
If we take 980 away from 1000, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
200 divided by 140 is 1 with a remainder of 60.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 366949.828571
If we take 140 away from 200, we end up with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
The number 140 fits into 600 4 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366949.8285714
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 560 from 600.
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 16:
140 can be fit into 400 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 120.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 366949.82857142
If we take 280 away from 400, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 366949.82857142 with a remaining 1.2e-07.
