Let's divide 487264 by 24
We want to divide 487264 by 24.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 24 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 24

Step 2:
The number 24 fits into 48 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 48 away from 48, we end up with 0.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 0, then repeat: 7 / 24

Step 3:
When dividing 7 by 24, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 24

Let's proceed to step 4:
24 can be fit into 72 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 203.0
Subtract 72 from 72 to get 0.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 6 / 24

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 6 by 24, we get 0 with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2030.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 64 / 24

Step 6:
24 can be fit into 64 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20302.0
If we take 48 away from 64, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
24 can be fit into 160 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20302.6
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 160 by 24, we get 6 with a remainder of 16.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20302.66
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 20302.66 with a remaining 0.016.
