We look at the division of 2044397 by 480 
We want to divide 2044397 by 480.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 480 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 480

On to step 2:
If we divide 20 by 480, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 204 / 480

Moving on to step 3:
480 goes into 204 0 times with a remainder of 204.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 204 after subtracting 0 from 204.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 204, then carry on: 2044 / 480

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 2044 by 480, we get 4 and a remainder of 124.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 1920 from 2044 and we're left with 124.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 124, then repeat: 1243 / 480

Going ahead to step 5:
480 goes into 1243 2 times with a remainder of 283.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 960 from 1243 leaves us with 283.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 283 and repeat the process: 2839 / 480

Step 6:
The number 480 fits into 2839 5 times, leaving a remainder of 439.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 425.0
Subtracting 2400 from 2839 leaves us with 439.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 439, then repeat: 4397 / 480

On to step 7:
When dividing 4397 by 480, we get 9 with a remainder of 77.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4259.0
Subtracting 4320 from 4397 leaves us with 77.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 770, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 770 by 480, we get 1 and a remainder of 290.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4259.1
The remainder is 290 after subtracting 480 from 770.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 2900 by 480, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4259.16
If we subtract 2880 from 2900, we 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 10:
The number 480 fits into 200 0 times, leaving a remainder of 200.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4259.16
If we take 0 away from 200, we end up with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
2000 divided by 480 is 4 with a remainder of 80.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4259.1604
Deduct 1920 from 2000 and we're left with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
800 divided by 480 is 1 with a remainder of 320.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4259.16041
If we subtract 480 from 800, we get 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
480 can be fit into 3200 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 320.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4259.160416
The remainder is 320 after subtracting 2880 from 3200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
3200 divided by 480 is 6 with a remainder of 320.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4259.1604166
Subtract 2880 from 3200 to get 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3200, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4259.1604166 with a remaining 3.2e-06.
