We're dividing 859778 by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 859778.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 85 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
85 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 48 from 85, we get 37.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 379 / 48

On to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 379 7 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 336 away from 379, we end up with 43.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 437 / 48

On to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 437 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 179.0
Subtract 432 from 437 to get 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 57 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1791.0
Subtracting 48 from 57 leaves us with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 17912.0
Deduct 96 from 98 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17912.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 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:
The number 48 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17912.04
If we take 192 away from 200, we end up with 8.
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:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17912.041
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 48 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
48 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17912.0416
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17912.04166
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left 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.

The final result is 17912.04166 with a remainder of 3.2e-05.
