973618 ÷ 48 
We want to divide 973618 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 97 / 48

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 97 by 48, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 96 away from 97, we end up with 1.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 13 / 48

Going ahead to step 3:
48 can be fit into 13 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtracting 0 from 13 leaves us with 13.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 136 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
136 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 40.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 202.0
Subtracting 96 from 136 leaves us with 40.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 401 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 401 8 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2028.0
Subtracting 384 from 401 leaves us with 17.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 17, then repeat: 178 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
178 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 20283.0
Deduct 144 from 178 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.

Step 7:
340 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20283.7
Deduct 336 from 340 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
40 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20283.7
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 20283.708
Subtract 384 from 400 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20283.7083
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20283.70833
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 20283.70833, and the remainder is 1.6e-05.
