We divide 948601 by 2
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 948601.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 2 fits into 9 4 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 8 away from 9, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 2

Moving on to step 2:
2 goes into 14 7 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we subtract 14 from 14, we get 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 2

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 8 by 2, we get 4 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 474.0
Subtract 8 from 8 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 2

Step 4:
6 divided by 2 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4743.0
If we take 6 away from 6, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 2

Let's proceed to step 5:
0 divided by 2 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47430.0
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 2

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 2 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 474300.0
If we take 0 away from 1, 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.

Moving on to step 7:
2 can be fit into 10 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 474300.5
If we subtract 10 from 10, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 2, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 474300.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 474300.5
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 474300.5 with a remainder of 0.0.
