48871 divided by 86 
We're looking to find how many times 86 goes into 48871.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 86, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 86

Let's proceed to step 2:
86 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 48, we get 48.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 488 / 86

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 488 by 86, we get 5 with a remainder of 58.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 430 from 488, we get 58.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 58 and continue with: 587 / 86

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 587 by 86, we get 6 with a remainder of 71.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
The remainder is 71 after subtracting 516 from 587.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 71, then carry on: 711 / 86

Advancing to step 5:
86 goes into 711 8 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 568.0
Subtract 688 from 711 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 6:
When dividing 230 by 86, we get 2 with a remainder of 58.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 568.2
Subtract 172 from 230 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Step 7:
86 can be fit into 580 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 568.26
If we take 516 away from 580, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 8:
86 can be fit into 640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 568.267
If we take 602 away from 640, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 86 fits into 380 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 568.2674
Subtracting 344 from 380 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 86 fits into 360 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 568.26744
Subtract 344 from 360 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 568.26744, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
