480955 ÷ 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 480955 can be divided by 48.

On to step 1:
4 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 48

On to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 48 from 48 and we're left with 0.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 0 / 48

Going ahead to step 3:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 9 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 9 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 95 / 48

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 95 1 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1001.0
Subtract 48 from 95 to get 47.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 475 / 48

Step 6:
48 can be fit into 475 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10019.0
Subtract 432 from 475 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 430 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10019.8
If we take 384 away from 430, we end up with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 460 by 48, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10019.89
Deduct 432 from 460 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10019.895
Subtract 240 from 280 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
48 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10019.8958
Subtracting 384 from 400 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10019.89583
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10019.895833
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10019.895833 and a remainder of 1.6e-06.
