We're dividing 48977339 by 999 
Our goal is to divide 48977339 by 999.

On to step 1:
999 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 999

Step 2:
48 divided by 999 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 48, we get 48.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 489 / 999

Advancing to step 3:
The number 999 fits into 489 0 times, leaving a remainder of 489.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 489, we end up with 489.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 489 and repeat the process: 4897 / 999

Let's proceed to step 4:
999 goes into 4897 4 times with a remainder of 901.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 901 after subtracting 3996 from 4897.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 901, then carry on: 9017 / 999

Let's proceed to step 5:
999 can be fit into 9017 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 8991 from 9017.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 263 / 999

Going ahead to step 6:
263 divided by 999 is 0 with a remainder of 263.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 490.0
Subtracting 0 from 263 leaves us with 263.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 263 and continue: 2633 / 999

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 2633 by 999, we get 2 and a remainder of 635.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4902.0
Subtracting 1998 from 2633 leaves us with 635.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 635 and continue with: 6359 / 999

Moving on to step 8:
999 can be fit into 6359 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 365.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49026.0
If we subtract 5994 from 6359, we get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
999 can be fit into 3650 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 653.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49026.3
Subtracting 2997 from 3650 leaves us with 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 999 fits into 6530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 536.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49026.36
If we subtract 5994 from 6530, we get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
5360 divided by 999 is 5 with a remainder of 365.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49026.365
If we subtract 4995 from 5360, we get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 3650 by 999, we get 3 with a remainder of 653.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49026.3653
Deduct 2997 from 3650 and we're left with 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
999 can be fit into 6530 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 536.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49026.36536
If we take 5994 away from 6530, we end up with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
999 goes into 5360 5 times with a remainder of 365.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49026.365365
Subtract 4995 from 5360 to get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
When dividing 3650 by 999, we get 3 with a remainder of 653.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49026.3653653
If we subtract 2997 from 3650, we get 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Step 16:
The number 999 fits into 6530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 536.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49026.36536536
The remainder is 536 after subtracting 5994 from 6530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 49026.36536536, and the remainder is 5.36e-07.
