We look at the division of 872227 by 51 
We want to figure out the number of times 872227 can be divided by 51.

Moving on to step 1:
8 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 51

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 87 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 36.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 51 from 87.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 362 / 51

On to step 3:
The number 51 fits into 362 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 357 away from 362, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 52 / 51

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 51 fits into 52 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 171.0
Deduct 51 from 52 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 51

On to step 5:
51 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1710.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 0 from 12.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 51

On to step 6:
The number 51 fits into 127 2 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17102.0
Subtracting 102 from 127 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
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: 17102.4
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.

On to step 8:
51 goes into 460 9 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17102.49
If we take 459 away from 460, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 10 by 51, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17102.49
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 100 by 51, we get 1 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17102.4901
The remainder is 49 after subtracting 51 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Step 11:
490 divided by 51 is 9 with a remainder of 31.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17102.49019
Deduct 459 from 490 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 310 by 51, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17102.490196
If we take 306 away from 310, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 13:
40 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 17102.490196
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 400 by 51, we get 7 with a remainder of 43.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17102.49019607
Subtracting 357 from 400 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 17102.49019607, and the remainder is 4.3e-08.
