We divide 965990 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 965990 can be divided by 48.

On to step 1:
9 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 96 / 48

On to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 96 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 96 from 96 to get 0.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 5 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 5 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 48

On to step 4:
48 goes into 59 1 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 201.0
If we take 48 away from 59, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 119 by 48, we get 2 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2012.0
Subtract 96 from 119 to get 23.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 230 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 230 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20124.0
Deduct 192 from 230 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
380 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20124.7
If we subtract 336 from 380, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
48 can be fit into 440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20124.79
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20124.791
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 48 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20124.7916
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
48 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20124.79166
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 20124.79166 with a balance of 3.2e-05.
