Let's divide 559988 by 48
Let's see how many times 48 fits into 559988.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 55 1 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 48 from 55.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 79 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
48 goes into 79 1 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtracting 48 from 79 leaves us with 31.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 319 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
48 can be fit into 319 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we subtract 288 from 319, we get 31.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 318 / 48

On to step 5:
When dividing 318 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 30.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1166.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 288 from 318.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 308 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 308 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11666.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 288 from 308.
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 7:
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: 11666.4
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.

Advancing to step 8:
48 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11666.41
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.

Step 9:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11666.416
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
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 10:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11666.4166
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11666.4166 and a remainder of 0.00032.
