481958 ÷ 4 
Let's see how many times 4 fits into 481958.

On to step 1:
4 goes into 4 1 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 4 from 4 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 8 / 4

Let's proceed to step 2:
4 can be fit into 8 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 8 from 8.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 4

On to step 3:
If we divide 1 by 4, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 120.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 4

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 19 by 4, we get 4 and a remainder of 3.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1204.0
If we subtract 16 from 19, we get 3.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 4

Let's proceed to step 5:
4 goes into 35 8 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12048.0
If we subtract 32 from 35, we get 3.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 38 / 4

Step 6:
If we divide 38 by 4, we get 9 and a remainder of 2.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 120489.0
If we take 36 away from 38, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 20 by 4, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 120489.5
If we take 20 away from 20, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 4, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 120489.5
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
0 divided by 4 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 120489.5
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 120489.5, with a leftover of 0.0.
