We look at the division of 116686 by 48 
We want to divide 116686 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 11 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 11 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 116 / 48

Step 3:
The number 48 fits into 116 2 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 96 from 116 to get 20.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 206 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
206 divided by 48 is 4 with a remainder of 14.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
Subtracting 192 from 206 leaves us with 14.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 148 3 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 243.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 144 from 148.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
48 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2430.0
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 0 from 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 goes into 460 9 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2430.9
Deduct 432 from 460 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2430.95
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 240 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
400 divided by 48 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2430.958
Subtract 384 from 400 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.

Step 10:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2430.9583
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 2430.95833
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2430.95833, and the remainder is 1.6e-05.
