Let's divide 876727 by 51
We're looking to find how many times 51 goes into 876727.

Step 1:
When dividing 8 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 51

Step 2:
51 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 51 from 87 leaves us with 36.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 366 / 51

Advancing to step 3:
366 divided by 51 is 7 with a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 357 from 366 and we're left with 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 51

Moving on to step 4:
The number 51 fits into 97 1 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 171.0
If we take 51 away from 97, we end up with 46.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 462 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 462 by 51, we get 9 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1719.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 459 from 462.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 51

Let's proceed to step 6:
37 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17190.0
If we take 0 away from 37, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 51 fits into 370 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17190.7
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 357 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
130 divided by 51 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17190.72
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 102 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
280 divided by 51 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17190.725
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 255 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 250 by 51, we get 4 and a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17190.7254
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 204 from 250.
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 11:
51 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17190.72549
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.

On to step 12:
10 divided by 51 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17190.72549
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
100 divided by 51 is 1 with a remainder of 49.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17190.7254901
If we take 51 away from 100, we end up with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 490 by 51, we get 9 and a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17190.72549019
If we subtract 459 from 490, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Our division results in 17190.72549019 with a remaining 3.1e-08.
