We're dividing 577741 by 48 
We want to divide 577741 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
48 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 57 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
57 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 48 from 57.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 97 / 48

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 97 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 96 from 97.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 17 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 17 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 120.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 48

Going ahead to step 5:
174 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 30.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1203.0
If we take 144 away from 174, we end up with 30.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 301 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
48 goes into 301 6 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12036.0
If we take 288 away from 301, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 130 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12036.2
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 96 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 340 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12036.27
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 336 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
48 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12036.27
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
48 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12036.2708
If we take 384 away from 400, 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.

On to step 11:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12036.27083
Subtract 144 from 160 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12036.270833
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 12036.270833 and a remainder of 1.6e-06.
