We divide 48689701 by 41
We want to figure out the number of times 48689701 can be divided by 41.

Let's proceed to step 1:
41 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 41

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 41 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 41 from 48 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 76 / 41

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 76 by 41, we get 1 and a remainder of 35.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 41 away from 76, we end up with 35.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 358 / 41

Advancing to step 4:
41 goes into 358 8 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 328 from 358.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 309 / 41

Moving on to step 5:
309 divided by 41 is 7 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1187.0
If we take 287 away from 309, we end up with 22.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 41

Step 6:
227 divided by 41 is 5 with a remainder of 22.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11875.0
Subtract 205 from 227 to get 22.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 220 / 41

Step 7:
If we divide 220 by 41, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118755.0
Subtracting 205 from 220 leaves us with 15.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 151 / 41

Going ahead to step 8:
151 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1187553.0
Deduct 123 from 151 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 280 by 41, we get 6 with a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1187553.6
Deduct 246 from 280 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
41 can be fit into 340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1187553.68
Subtracting 328 from 340 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 120 by 41, we get 2 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1187553.682
If we take 82 away from 120, we end up 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 12:
If we divide 380 by 41, we get 9 and a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1187553.6829
If we subtract 369 from 380, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
110 divided by 41 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1187553.68292
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 82 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 14:
41 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1187553.682926
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 246 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
If we divide 340 by 41, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1187553.6829268
Subtracting 328 from 340 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 41 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1187553.68292682
Subtracting 82 from 120 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 1187553.68292682 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
