\begin{array}{l}\phantom{25)}\phantom{1}\\25\overline{)50}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 5 from dividend 50
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{25)}0\phantom{2}\\25\overline{)50}\\\end{array}
Since 5 is less than 25, use the next digit 0 from dividend 50 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{25)}0\phantom{3}\\25\overline{)50}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 0 from dividend 50
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{25)}02\phantom{4}\\25\overline{)50}\\\phantom{25)}\underline{\phantom{}50\phantom{}}\\\phantom{25)99}0\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 25 to 50. We see that 2 \times 25 = 50 is the nearest. Now subtract 50 from 50 to get reminder 0. Add 2 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }2 \text{Reminder: }0
Since 0 is less than 25, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 02 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 2.
