33179872 divided by 501 
Our goal is to divide 33179872 by 501.

On to step 1:
The number 501 fits into 3 0 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 33 / 501

On to step 2:
The number 501 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 33, we get 33.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 331 / 501

Going ahead to step 3:
501 goes into 331 0 times with a remainder of 331.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 331 and we're left with 331.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 331 and continue with: 3317 / 501

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 3317 by 501, we get 6 and a remainder of 311.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 3006 from 3317, we get 311.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 311, then carry on: 3119 / 501

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 3119 by 501, we get 6 with a remainder of 113.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 66.0
If we take 3006 away from 3119, we end up with 113.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 113, then carry on: 1138 / 501

Advancing to step 6:
501 goes into 1138 2 times with a remainder of 136.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 662.0
Subtracting 1002 from 1138 leaves us with 136.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 136 and repeat the process: 1367 / 501

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 1367 by 501, we get 2 with a remainder of 365.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 6622.0
If we subtract 1002 from 1367, we get 365.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 365 and continue: 3652 / 501

Moving on to step 8:
3652 divided by 501 is 7 with a remainder of 145.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 66227.0
The remainder is 145 after subtracting 3507 from 3652.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
1450 divided by 501 is 2 with a remainder of 448.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 66227.2
Subtracting 1002 from 1450 leaves us with 448.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 501 fits into 4480 8 times, leaving a remainder of 472.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 66227.28
Subtracting 4008 from 4480 leaves us with 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
4720 divided by 501 is 9 with a remainder of 211.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 66227.289
If we subtract 4509 from 4720, we get 211.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2110, and continue the process.

Step 12:
501 can be fit into 2110 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 106.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 66227.2894
Subtracting 2004 from 2110 leaves us with 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 1060 by 501, we get 2 and a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 66227.28942
Subtracting 1002 from 1060 leaves us with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 580 by 501, we get 1 and a remainder of 79.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 66227.289421
If we subtract 501 from 580, we get 79.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 790, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
When dividing 790 by 501, we get 1 with a remainder of 289.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 66227.2894211
If we take 501 away from 790, we end up with 289.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2890, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 66227.2894211 and a remainder of 2.89e-06.
