We divide 557129 by 48
We want to divide 557129 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 48 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 48

On to step 2:
48 goes into 55 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 48 from 55 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 77 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
77 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 48 from 77 to get 29.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 291 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 291 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we take 288 away from 291, we end up with 3.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 32 / 48

On to step 5:
If we divide 32 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 32.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1160.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 329 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
329 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11606.0
If we take 288 away from 329, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 410 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11606.8
Subtracting 384 from 410 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11606.85
If we subtract 240 from 260, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11606.854
Subtract 192 from 200 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
48 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11606.8541
Subtract 48 from 80 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
48 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11606.85416
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11606.854166
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11606.854166 with a remaining 3.2e-06.
