188048 ÷ 51 
We want to figure out the number of times 188048 can be divided by 51.

Step 1:
1 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 51

On to step 2:
51 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 18, we end up with 18.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 51

Step 3:
51 goes into 188 3 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 153 from 188.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 35, then repeat: 350 / 51

Step 4:
350 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
Deduct 306 from 350 and we're left with 44.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 444 / 51

On to step 5:
The number 51 fits into 444 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 368.0
Subtracting 408 from 444 leaves us with 36.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 368 / 51

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 368 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3687.0
Deduct 357 from 368 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 110 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3687.2
If we subtract 102 from 110, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 80 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3687.21
If we subtract 51 from 80, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 9:
51 can be fit into 290 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3687.215
Subtract 255 from 290 to get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
350 divided by 51 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3687.2156
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 306 from 350.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
51 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3687.21568
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 408 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 51, we get 6 and a remainder of 14.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3687.215686
Deduct 306 from 320 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 140 by 51, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3687.2156862
Subtracting 102 from 140 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 380 by 51, we get 7 and a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3687.21568627
If we take 357 away from 380, we end up with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 3687.21568627 with a balance of 2.3e-08.
