We divide 253144 by 49
We want to divide 253144 by 49.

Step 1:
When dividing 2 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 49

Step 2:
The number 49 fits into 25 0 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 253 / 49

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 49 fits into 253 5 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 245 from 253 and we're left with 8.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 81 / 49

Step 4:
When dividing 81 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Deduct 49 from 81 and we're left with 32.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 324 / 49

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 49 fits into 324 6 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 516.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 294 from 324.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 304 / 49

Let's proceed to step 6:
304 divided by 49 is 6 with a remainder of 10.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5166.0
Subtracting 294 from 304 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 49 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5166.2
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 98 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 20 by 49, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5166.2
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 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 9:
When dividing 200 by 49, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5166.204
If we subtract 196 from 200, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
49 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5166.204
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 49, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5166.20408
Subtracting 392 from 400 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 49 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5166.204081
If we subtract 49 from 80, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 49 fits into 310 6 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5166.2040816
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 294 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 49, we get 3 with a remainder of 13.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5166.20408163
Subtract 147 from 160 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5166.20408163 and a remainder of 1.3e-08.
