We look at the division of 48517965 by 977 
Our goal is to divide 48517965 by 977.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 977, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 977

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 977, we get 0 and 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.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 485 / 977

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 485 by 977, we get 0 and a remainder of 485.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 485 and we're left with 485.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 485 and repeat the process: 4851 / 977

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 4851 by 977, we get 4 with a remainder of 943.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 943 after subtracting 3908 from 4851.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 943, then repeat: 9437 / 977

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 9437 by 977, we get 9 with a remainder of 644.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtracting 8793 from 9437 leaves us with 644.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 644 and continue with: 6449 / 977

Step 6:
977 goes into 6449 6 times with a remainder of 587.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 496.0
Subtract 5862 from 6449 to get 587.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 587, then carry on: 5876 / 977

Advancing to step 7:
977 can be fit into 5876 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4966.0
Subtracting 5862 from 5876 leaves us with 14.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 145 / 977

On to step 8:
145 divided by 977 is 0 with a remainder of 145.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 49660.0
If we subtract 0 from 145, we get 145.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 1450 by 977, we get 1 and a remainder of 473.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49660.1
If we take 977 away from 1450, we end up with 473.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4730, and continue the process.

Step 10:
977 goes into 4730 4 times with a remainder of 822.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49660.14
The remainder is 822 after subtracting 3908 from 4730.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
8220 divided by 977 is 8 with a remainder of 404.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49660.148
The remainder is 404 after subtracting 7816 from 8220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4040, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
4040 divided by 977 is 4 with a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49660.1484
The remainder is 132 after subtracting 3908 from 4040.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 1320 by 977, we get 1 with a remainder of 343.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 49660.14841
The remainder is 343 after subtracting 977 from 1320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
3430 divided by 977 is 3 with a remainder of 499.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49660.148413
The remainder is 499 after subtracting 2931 from 3430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4990, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 977 fits into 4990 5 times, leaving a remainder of 105.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49660.1484135
Deduct 4885 from 4990 and we're left with 105.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1050, and continue the process.

Step 16:
1050 divided by 977 is 1 with a remainder of 73.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 49660.14841351
If we take 977 away from 1050, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 49660.14841351 and a remainder of 7.3e-08.
