We're dividing 240829 by 51 
Our goal is to divide 240829 by 51.

Step 1:
51 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 51

On to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 240 / 51

Let's proceed to step 3:
51 goes into 240 4 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 204 from 240 and we're left with 36.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 368 / 51

Advancing to step 4:
368 divided by 51 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtract 357 from 368 to get 11.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 112 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 112 by 51, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 472.0
Subtracting 102 from 112 leaves us with 10.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 109 / 51

Step 6:
109 divided by 51 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4722.0
Subtract 102 from 109 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 70 by 51, we get 1 and a remainder of 19.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4722.1
If we subtract 51 from 70, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
190 divided by 51 is 3 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4722.13
Subtract 153 from 190 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
51 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4722.137
Subtracting 357 from 370 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 10:
130 divided by 51 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4722.1372
If we take 102 away from 130, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 51, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4722.13725
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 12:
250 divided by 51 is 4 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4722.137254
If we subtract 204 from 250, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 51 fits into 460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4722.1372549
If we subtract 459 from 460, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 14:
51 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4722.1372549
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 4722.1372549, with a leftover of 1e-08.
