Let's divide 540970 by 51
We want to figure out the number of times 540970 can be divided by 51.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 54 / 51

Step 2:
51 can be fit into 54 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 51 from 54 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 30 / 51

Step 3:
51 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 309 / 51

Advancing to step 4:
51 can be fit into 309 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 106.0
If we subtract 306 from 309, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 51

Going ahead to step 5:
37 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 37.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1060.0
Subtract 0 from 37 to get 37.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 370 / 51

Step 6:
51 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10607.0
If we take 357 away from 370, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
51 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10607.2
If we take 102 away from 130, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
51 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10607.25
Subtract 255 from 280 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 51 fits into 250 4 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10607.254
Deduct 204 from 250 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
460 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10607.2549
Deduct 459 from 460 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 10 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10607.2549
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
51 goes into 100 1 times with a remainder of 49.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10607.254901
If we subtract 51 from 100, we get 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
490 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10607.2549019
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 459 from 490.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 310 by 51, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10607.25490196
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 306 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 10607.25490196, with a leftover of 4e-09.
