Let's divide 5545871 by 481
We're looking to find how many times 481 goes into 5545871.

On to step 1:
The number 481 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 481

Step 2:
When dividing 55 by 481, we get 0 with a remainder of 55.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 55 after subtracting 0 from 55.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 554 / 481

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 554 by 481, we get 1 with a remainder of 73.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 481 from 554.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 73, then repeat: 735 / 481

Moving on to step 4:
481 goes into 735 1 times with a remainder of 254.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 481 from 735 to get 254.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 254 and continue with: 2548 / 481

On to step 5:
2548 divided by 481 is 5 with a remainder of 143.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 115.0
If we take 2405 away from 2548, we end up with 143.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 143 and continue: 1437 / 481

Moving on to step 6:
481 can be fit into 1437 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 475.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1152.0
Subtract 962 from 1437 to get 475.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 475, then carry on: 4751 / 481

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 4751 by 481, we get 9 with a remainder of 422.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11529.0
Subtracting 4329 from 4751 leaves us with 422.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
4220 divided by 481 is 8 with a remainder of 372.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11529.8
The remainder is 372 after subtracting 3848 from 4220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
481 goes into 3720 7 times with a remainder of 353.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11529.87
If we take 3367 away from 3720, we end up with 353.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3530, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 481 fits into 3530 7 times, leaving a remainder of 163.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11529.877
Subtracting 3367 from 3530 leaves us with 163.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1630, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 11529.877, with a leftover of 0.0163.
