We look at the division of 250879 by 49 
We want to divide 250879 by 49.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 49, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 49

Going ahead to step 2:
25 divided by 49 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 250 / 49

Advancing to step 3:
250 divided by 49 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 245 away from 250, we end up with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 49

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 58 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 51.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 49 from 58.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 97 / 49

Step 5:
49 goes into 97 1 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 511.0
If we take 49 away from 97, we end up with 48.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 489 / 49

Advancing to step 6:
49 goes into 489 9 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5119.0
Deduct 441 from 489 and we're left with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
49 can be fit into 480 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5119.9
If we subtract 441 from 480, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 390 by 49, we get 7 with a remainder of 47.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5119.97
Subtract 343 from 390 to get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 470 by 49, we get 9 with a remainder of 29.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5119.979
If we take 441 away from 470, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
49 can be fit into 290 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5119.9795
If we subtract 245 from 290, we get 45.
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 11:
450 divided by 49 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5119.97959
Subtract 441 from 450 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
49 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5119.979591
Subtract 49 from 90 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 13:
410 divided by 49 is 8 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5119.9795918
Deduct 392 from 410 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
The number 49 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5119.97959183
Subtracting 147 from 180 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

The final result is 5119.97959183 with a remainder of 3.3e-08.
