983602 ÷ 48 
We want to divide 983602 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
48 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 98 2 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 96 from 98 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 48

On to step 3:
When dividing 23 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 236 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
48 can be fit into 236 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 204.0
If we take 192 away from 236, we end up with 44.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 440 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
48 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2049.0
If we subtract 432 from 440, we get 8.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 82 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
82 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20491.0
If we take 48 away from 82, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20491.7
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.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20491.7
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 20491.708
If we subtract 384 from 400, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20491.7083
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:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20491.70833
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.

The quotient of the division is 20491.70833, and the remainder is 1.6e-05.
