We're dividing 51304621 by 178 
Our goal is to divide 51304621 by 178.

Let's proceed to step 1:
178 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 178

Going ahead to step 2:
178 goes into 51 0 times with a remainder of 51.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 51 to get 51.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 513 / 178

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 513 by 178, we get 2 and a remainder of 157.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 356 from 513, we get 157.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 157 and repeat the process: 1570 / 178

On to step 4:
178 goes into 1570 8 times with a remainder of 146.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtract 1424 from 1570 to get 146.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 146, then carry on: 1464 / 178

On to step 5:
178 goes into 1464 8 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 288.0
Subtract 1424 from 1464 to get 40.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 406 / 178

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 406 by 178, we get 2 and a remainder of 50.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2882.0
Subtract 356 from 406 to get 50.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 50 and continue: 502 / 178

Going ahead to step 7:
178 can be fit into 502 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 146.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28822.0
Subtract 356 from 502 to get 146.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 146, then carry on: 1461 / 178

Step 8:
178 can be fit into 1461 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 288228.0
If we take 1424 away from 1461, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
178 goes into 370 2 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 288228.2
Subtracting 356 from 370 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 10:
178 goes into 140 0 times with a remainder of 140.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 288228.2
Subtract 0 from 140 to get 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
1400 divided by 178 is 7 with a remainder of 154.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 288228.207
If we take 1246 away from 1400, we end up with 154.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 178 fits into 1540 8 times, leaving a remainder of 116.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 288228.2078
If we take 1424 away from 1540, we end up with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 1160 by 178, we get 6 and a remainder of 92.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 288228.20786
Subtract 1068 from 1160 to get 92.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
178 goes into 920 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 288228.207865
If we subtract 890 from 920, we 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.

On to step 15:
When dividing 300 by 178, we get 1 with a remainder of 122.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 288228.2078651
Deduct 178 from 300 and we're left with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
178 goes into 1220 6 times with a remainder of 152.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 288228.20786516
The remainder is 152 after subtracting 1068 from 1220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 288228.20786516 and a remainder of 1.52e-07.
