4848978 divided by 500 
Our goal is to divide 4848978 by 500.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 500 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 500

Advancing to step 2:
The number 500 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 484 / 500

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 484 by 500, we get 0 with a remainder of 484.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 484 to get 484.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 484, then repeat: 4848 / 500

On to step 4:
4848 divided by 500 is 9 with a remainder of 348.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 348 after subtracting 4500 from 4848.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 348, then repeat: 3489 / 500

Step 5:
The number 500 fits into 3489 6 times, leaving a remainder of 489.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 96.0
The remainder is 489 after subtracting 3000 from 3489.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 489 and repeat the process: 4897 / 500

Step 6:
If we divide 4897 by 500, we get 9 and a remainder of 397.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 969.0
Subtracting 4500 from 4897 leaves us with 397.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 397, then repeat: 3978 / 500

On to step 7:
If we divide 3978 by 500, we get 7 and a remainder of 478.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 9697.0
Subtract 3500 from 3978 to get 478.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4780, and continue the process.

Step 8:
500 goes into 4780 9 times with a remainder of 280.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9697.9
Subtracting 4500 from 4780 leaves us with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
The number 500 fits into 2800 5 times, leaving a remainder of 300.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9697.95
The remainder is 300 after subtracting 2500 from 2800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 3000 by 500, we get 6 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 9697.956
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 3000 from 3000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
500 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 9697.956
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 500 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9697.956
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 9697.956, and the remainder is 0.0.
