We look at the division of 48985711 by 338 
Our goal is to divide 48985711 by 338.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 338, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 338

On to step 2:
338 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 489 / 338

On to step 3:
489 divided by 338 is 1 with a remainder of 151.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 151 after subtracting 338 from 489.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 151, then carry on: 1518 / 338

Going ahead to step 4:
338 can be fit into 1518 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 166.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we take 1352 away from 1518, we end up with 166.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 166, then carry on: 1665 / 338

Let's proceed to step 5:
338 goes into 1665 4 times with a remainder of 313.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 144.0
The remainder is 313 after subtracting 1352 from 1665.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 313, then repeat: 3137 / 338

Going ahead to step 6:
338 can be fit into 3137 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 95.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1449.0
If we take 3042 away from 3137, we end up with 95.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 95, then repeat: 951 / 338

Step 7:
338 can be fit into 951 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 275.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14492.0
Subtracting 676 from 951 leaves us with 275.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 275, then repeat: 2751 / 338

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 2751 by 338, we get 8 and a remainder of 47.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.0
Subtract 2704 from 2751 to get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
470 divided by 338 is 1 with a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144928.1
Subtracting 338 from 470 leaves us with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
338 goes into 1320 3 times with a remainder of 306.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.13
Deduct 1014 from 1320 and we're left with 306.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3060, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
338 goes into 3060 9 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144928.139
Subtracting 3042 from 3060 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
180 divided by 338 is 0 with a remainder of 180.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 144928.139
If we subtract 0 from 180, we get 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 1800 by 338, we get 5 with a remainder of 110.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 144928.13905
If we subtract 1690 from 1800, we get 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 1100 by 338, we get 3 with a remainder of 86.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 144928.139053
Deduct 1014 from 1100 and we're left with 86.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 860, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 338 fits into 860 2 times, leaving a remainder of 184.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 144928.1390532
Subtract 676 from 860 to get 184.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1840, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
338 can be fit into 1840 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 150.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 144928.13905325
The remainder is 150 after subtracting 1690 from 1840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 144928.13905325, and the remainder is 1.5e-07.
