We're dividing 647989 by 48 
Our goal is to divide 647989 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 goes into 64 1 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 48 from 64 leaves us with 16.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 167 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
48 goes into 167 3 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 144 from 167.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 239 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
48 goes into 239 4 times with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 134.0
If we take 192 away from 239, we end up with 47.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 478 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 478 9 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1349.0
If we subtract 432 from 478, we get 46.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 469 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 469 by 48, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13499.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 432 from 469.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13499.7
If we take 336 away from 370, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
48 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13499.77
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.

The final result is 13499.77 with a remainder of 0.004.
