We divide 12852142 by 497
We want to divide 12852142 by 497.

Step 1:
The number 497 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 497

Moving on to step 2:
497 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 128 / 497

Step 3:
128 divided by 497 is 0 with a remainder of 128.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 128 and we're left with 128.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 128 and repeat the process: 1285 / 497

On to step 4:
When dividing 1285 by 497, we get 2 with a remainder of 291.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 994 from 1285 leaves us with 291.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 291, then carry on: 2912 / 497

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 2912 by 497, we get 5 with a remainder of 427.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 25.0
The remainder is 427 after subtracting 2485 from 2912.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 427, then repeat: 4271 / 497

Moving on to step 6:
The number 497 fits into 4271 8 times, leaving a remainder of 295.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 258.0
If we subtract 3976 from 4271, we get 295.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 295 and continue with: 2954 / 497

Moving on to step 7:
2954 divided by 497 is 5 with a remainder of 469.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2585.0
If we take 2485 away from 2954, we end up with 469.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 469, then carry on: 4692 / 497

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 497 fits into 4692 9 times, leaving a remainder of 219.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 25859.0
Subtracting 4473 from 4692 leaves us with 219.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2190, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 497 fits into 2190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 202.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25859.4
If we take 1988 away from 2190, we end up with 202.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2020, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
2020 divided by 497 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 25859.44
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 1988 from 2020.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 25859.44, with a leftover of 0.032.
