Let's divide 981914 by 48
We want to divide 981914 by 48.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 9 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 98 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 96 away from 98, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 48

Step 3:
21 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 219 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 219 4 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 204.0
If we take 192 away from 219, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 271 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 271 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 31.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2045.0
If we take 240 away from 271, we end up with 31.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 314 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 314 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20456.0
Subtracting 288 from 314 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
48 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20456.5
Subtract 240 from 260 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 20456.54
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 192 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 80 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20456.541
If we take 48 away from 80, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 10:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20456.5416
Subtract 288 from 320 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to 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: 20456.54166
If we take 288 away from 320, we end up 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.

Our division results in 20456.54166 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
