48731599 divided by 996 
We want to figure out the number of times 48731599 can be divided by 996.

Advancing to step 1:
996 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 996

Let's proceed to step 2:
996 goes into 48 0 times with a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 487 / 996

On to step 3:
If we divide 487 by 996, we get 0 and a remainder of 487.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 487 leaves us with 487.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 487 and continue with: 4873 / 996

Going ahead to step 4:
996 goes into 4873 4 times with a remainder of 889.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 889 after subtracting 3984 from 4873.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 889, then repeat: 8891 / 996

Step 5:
The number 996 fits into 8891 8 times, leaving a remainder of 923.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48.0
Subtracting 7968 from 8891 leaves us with 923.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 923 and continue with: 9235 / 996

On to step 6:
The number 996 fits into 9235 9 times, leaving a remainder of 271.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 489.0
The remainder is 271 after subtracting 8964 from 9235.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 271, then carry on: 2719 / 996

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 996 fits into 2719 2 times, leaving a remainder of 727.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4892.0
Subtracting 1992 from 2719 leaves us with 727.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 727 and repeat the process: 7279 / 996

Moving on to step 8:
996 goes into 7279 7 times with a remainder of 307.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 48927.0
Deduct 6972 from 7279 and we're left with 307.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3070, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
3070 divided by 996 is 3 with a remainder of 82.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48927.3
Subtract 2988 from 3070 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 820 by 996, we get 0 and a remainder of 820.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 48927.3
Subtract 0 from 820 to get 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
996 goes into 8200 8 times with a remainder of 232.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48927.308
If we take 7968 away from 8200, we end up with 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2320, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 2320 by 996, we get 2 and a remainder of 328.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48927.3082
Deduct 1992 from 2320 and we're left with 328.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 996 fits into 3280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 292.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48927.30823
The remainder is 292 after subtracting 2988 from 3280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2920, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
2920 divided by 996 is 2 with a remainder of 928.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 48927.308232
If we subtract 1992 from 2920, we get 928.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
If we divide 9280 by 996, we get 9 and a remainder of 316.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 48927.3082329
The remainder is 316 after subtracting 8964 from 9280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3160, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 3160 by 996, we get 3 with a remainder of 172.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 48927.30823293
Deduct 2988 from 3160 and we're left with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 48927.30823293 with a balance of 1.72e-07.
