We divide 45148377 by 972
We want to figure out the number of times 45148377 can be divided by 972.

Step 1:
972 goes into 4 0 times with 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.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 45 / 972

Advancing to step 2:
45 divided by 972 is 0 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 45 and we're left with 45.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 45 and continue with: 451 / 972

On to step 3:
If we divide 451 by 972, we get 0 and a remainder of 451.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 451, we end up with 451.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 451, then repeat: 4514 / 972

Advancing to step 4:
972 can be fit into 4514 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 626.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 3888 from 4514, we get 626.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 626, then repeat: 6268 / 972

Step 5:
6268 divided by 972 is 6 with a remainder of 436.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
Subtracting 5832 from 6268 leaves us with 436.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 436, then repeat: 4363 / 972

Advancing to step 6:
4363 divided by 972 is 4 with a remainder of 475.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 464.0
The remainder is 475 after subtracting 3888 from 4363.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 475 and continue with: 4757 / 972

Advancing to step 7:
4757 divided by 972 is 4 with a remainder of 869.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4644.0
Subtract 3888 from 4757 to get 869.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 869, then repeat: 8697 / 972

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 972 fits into 8697 8 times, leaving a remainder of 921.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46448.0
Subtracting 7776 from 8697 leaves us with 921.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9210, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 9210 by 972, we get 9 and a remainder of 462.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46448.9
The remainder is 462 after subtracting 8748 from 9210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
972 can be fit into 4620 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 732.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 46448.94
Subtract 3888 from 4620 to get 732.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
972 goes into 7320 7 times with a remainder of 516.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46448.947
Subtract 6804 from 7320 to get 516.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 5160 by 972, we get 5 and a remainder of 300.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46448.9475
Deduct 4860 from 5160 and we're left with 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 972 fits into 3000 3 times, leaving a remainder of 84.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46448.94753
Deduct 2916 from 3000 and we're left with 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
972 can be fit into 840 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 840.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46448.94753
Subtract 0 from 840 to get 840.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8400, and continue the process.

Step 15:
972 goes into 8400 8 times with a remainder of 624.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 46448.9475308
Deduct 7776 from 8400 and we're left with 624.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
When dividing 6240 by 972, we get 6 with a remainder of 408.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46448.94753086
If we take 5832 away from 6240, we end up with 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

The final result is 46448.94753086 with a remainder of 4.08e-07.
