To divide 49 by 8, you would set it up as follows:

1. Divide: Determine how many times 8 fits into 49. It fits 6 times because ( 8 times 6 = 48 ), which is less than 49.

2. Multiply: Multiply 6 by 8 to get 48.

3. Subtract: Subtract 48 from 49, which gives you a remainder of 1.

So, the division can be expressed as:

[ 49 div 8 = 6 quad text{with a remainder of} quad 1 ]

This can also be written as:

[ 49 div 8 = 6 frac{1}{8} ]

or as a decimal: ( 6.125 ).

This means that 8 goes into 49 six times, with a little left over. Keep practicing division, and you’ll get the hang of it! If you have more questions, feel free to ask!
