We look at the division of 48961981 by 216 
Our goal is to divide 48961981 by 216.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 216, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 216

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 216, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 489 / 216

Advancing to step 3:
216 goes into 489 2 times with a remainder of 57.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 432 away from 489, we end up with 57.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 576 / 216

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 576 by 216, we get 2 with a remainder of 144.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 432 from 576.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 144 and repeat the process: 1441 / 216

Step 5:
1441 divided by 216 is 6 with a remainder of 145.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 226.0
If we take 1296 away from 1441, we end up with 145.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 145 and continue: 1459 / 216

On to step 6:
When dividing 1459 by 216, we get 6 with a remainder of 163.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2266.0
If we subtract 1296 from 1459, we get 163.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 163 and repeat the process: 1638 / 216

Advancing to step 7:
1638 divided by 216 is 7 with a remainder of 126.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 22667.0
Subtract 1512 from 1638 to get 126.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 126, then repeat: 1261 / 216

On to step 8:
The number 216 fits into 1261 5 times, leaving a remainder of 181.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 226675.0
Subtracting 1080 from 1261 leaves us with 181.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1810, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 1810 by 216, we get 8 with a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 226675.8
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 1728 from 1810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
820 divided by 216 is 3 with a remainder of 172.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 226675.83
If we subtract 648 from 820, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 216 fits into 1720 7 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 226675.837
If we take 1512 away from 1720, we end up with 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 2080 by 216, we get 9 with a remainder of 136.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 226675.8379
The remainder is 136 after subtracting 1944 from 2080.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
If we divide 1360 by 216, we get 6 and a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 226675.83796
The remainder is 64 after subtracting 1296 from 1360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 216 fits into 640 2 times, leaving a remainder of 208.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 226675.837962
Deduct 432 from 640 and we're left with 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
216 can be fit into 2080 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 136.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 226675.8379629
Subtracting 1944 from 2080 leaves us with 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
When dividing 1360 by 216, we get 6 with a remainder of 64.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 226675.83796296
Subtracting 1296 from 1360 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 226675.83796296 with a remaining 6.4e-08.
