We divide 49978956 by 876
We want to divide 49978956 by 876.

Advancing to step 1:
876 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 876

Step 2:
876 can be fit into 49 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 49, we end up with 49.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 499 / 876

Let's proceed to step 3:
876 can be fit into 499 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 499.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 499 leaves us with 499.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 499, then repeat: 4997 / 876

Step 4:
4997 divided by 876 is 5 with a remainder of 617.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 4380 away from 4997, we end up with 617.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 617 and repeat the process: 6178 / 876

Advancing to step 5:
876 can be fit into 6178 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57.0
If we subtract 6132 from 6178, we get 46.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 469 / 876

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 469 by 876, we get 0 with a remainder of 469.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 570.0
The remainder is 469 after subtracting 0 from 469.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 469 and continue with: 4695 / 876

Going ahead to step 7:
876 goes into 4695 5 times with a remainder of 315.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5705.0
The remainder is 315 after subtracting 4380 from 4695.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 315 and continue: 3156 / 876

Step 8:
876 can be fit into 3156 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 528.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57053.0
The remainder is 528 after subtracting 2628 from 3156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
876 goes into 5280 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57053.6
If we subtract 5256 from 5280, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 876 fits into 240 0 times, leaving a remainder of 240.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57053.6
If we subtract 0 from 240, we get 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 2400 by 876, we get 2 and a remainder of 648.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57053.602
If we subtract 1752 from 2400, we get 648.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
6480 divided by 876 is 7 with a remainder of 348.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 57053.6027
The remainder is 348 after subtracting 6132 from 6480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3480, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
3480 divided by 876 is 3 with a remainder of 852.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 57053.60273
Subtracting 2628 from 3480 leaves us with 852.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8520, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
8520 divided by 876 is 9 with a remainder of 636.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 57053.602739
If we take 7884 away from 8520, we end up with 636.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 15:
876 goes into 6360 7 times with a remainder of 228.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 57053.6027397
If we take 6132 away from 6360, we end up with 228.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 16:
876 can be fit into 2280 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 528.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57053.60273972
The remainder is 528 after subtracting 1752 from 2280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5280, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 57053.60273972 with a balance of 5.28e-07.
