We're dividing 48440971 by 587 
We're looking to find how many times 587 goes into 48440971.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 587 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 587

Moving on to step 2:
48 divided by 587 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 48 and continue: 484 / 587

On to step 3:
587 goes into 484 0 times with a remainder of 484.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 484 and we're left with 484.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 484, then repeat: 4844 / 587

Moving on to step 4:
The number 587 fits into 4844 8 times, leaving a remainder of 148.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 4696 from 4844 to get 148.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 148, then carry on: 1480 / 587

Going ahead to step 5:
587 can be fit into 1480 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 306.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Deduct 1174 from 1480 and we're left with 306.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 306, then repeat: 3069 / 587

Let's proceed to step 6:
3069 divided by 587 is 5 with a remainder of 134.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 825.0
If we subtract 2935 from 3069, we get 134.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 134 and continue with: 1347 / 587

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 1347 by 587, we get 2 with a remainder of 173.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8252.0
If we take 1174 away from 1347, we end up with 173.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 173 and repeat the process: 1731 / 587

On to step 8:
587 goes into 1731 2 times with a remainder of 557.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 82522.0
If we subtract 1174 from 1731, we get 557.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5570, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 5570 by 587, we get 9 with a remainder of 287.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 82522.9
Subtracting 5283 from 5570 leaves us with 287.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2870, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 2870 by 587, we get 4 with a remainder of 522.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 82522.94
Subtract 2348 from 2870 to get 522.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5220, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 5220 by 587, we get 8 and a remainder of 524.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82522.948
Deduct 4696 from 5220 and we're left with 524.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 5240 by 587, we get 8 and a remainder of 544.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82522.9488
If we take 4696 away from 5240, we end up with 544.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5440, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 82522.9488 with a balance of 0.00544.
