48072 ÷ 82 
Our goal is to divide 48072 by 82.

Step 1:
The number 82 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 82

On to step 2:
82 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 480 / 82

Going ahead to step 3:
82 can be fit into 480 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 410 from 480, we get 70.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 70 and continue: 707 / 82

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 707 by 82, we get 8 and a remainder of 51.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 58.0
Deduct 656 from 707 and we're left with 51.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 51, then carry on: 512 / 82

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 512 by 82, we get 6 and a remainder of 20.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 586.0
Subtracting 492 from 512 leaves us 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.

Step 6:
82 goes into 200 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 586.2
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 164 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
82 can be fit into 360 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 586.24
If we take 328 away from 360, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 320 by 82, we get 3 with a remainder of 74.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 586.243
If we take 246 away from 320, we end up with 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
740 divided by 82 is 9 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 586.2439
Subtract 738 from 740 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
82 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 586.2439
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
82 can be fit into 200 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 586.243902
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 164 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 12:
360 divided by 82 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 586.2439024
Subtract 328 from 360 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
320 divided by 82 is 3 with a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 586.24390243
Subtract 246 from 320 to get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 586.24390243, with a leftover of 7.4e-08.
