Let's divide 51428879 by 161
Our goal is to divide 51428879 by 161.

On to step 1:
161 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in 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.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 161

Advancing to step 2:
51 divided by 161 is 0 with a remainder of 51.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 51 to get 51.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 51 and repeat the process: 514 / 161

On to step 3:
If we divide 514 by 161, we get 3 and a remainder of 31.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 483 from 514 and we're left with 31.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 31 and continue with: 312 / 161

Let's proceed to step 4:
161 can be fit into 312 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 151.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 161 from 312, we get 151.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 151 and continue with: 1518 / 161

Let's proceed to step 5:
161 can be fit into 1518 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 69.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319.0
If we take 1449 away from 1518, we end up with 69.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 69, then repeat: 698 / 161

Advancing to step 6:
161 can be fit into 698 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 54.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3194.0
The remainder is 54 after subtracting 644 from 698.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 54 and continue: 547 / 161

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 547 by 161, we get 3 with a remainder of 64.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 31943.0
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 483 from 547.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 64, then repeat: 649 / 161

Step 8:
The number 161 fits into 649 4 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 319434.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 644 from 649.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 50 by 161, we get 0 with a remainder of 50.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319434.0
The remainder is 50 after subtracting 0 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
161 can be fit into 500 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319434.03
Deduct 483 from 500 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 170 by 161, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 319434.031
Subtract 161 from 170 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 90 by 161, we get 0 and a remainder of 90.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 319434.031
Deduct 0 from 90 and we're left with 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
900 divided by 161 is 5 with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 319434.03105
Subtracting 805 from 900 leaves us with 95.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 950, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
950 divided by 161 is 5 with a remainder of 145.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 319434.031055
If we subtract 805 from 950, we get 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 319434.031055, and the remainder is 1.45e-05.
