48728981 ÷ 656 
We want to divide 48728981 by 656.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 656, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 656

Advancing to step 2:
The number 656 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 487 / 656

Advancing to step 3:
The number 656 fits into 487 0 times, leaving a remainder of 487.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 487 leaves us with 487.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 487, then repeat: 4872 / 656

Step 4:
656 goes into 4872 7 times with a remainder of 280.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
The remainder is 280 after subtracting 4592 from 4872.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 280, then carry on: 2808 / 656

Going ahead to step 5:
656 goes into 2808 4 times with a remainder of 184.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74.0
Subtracting 2624 from 2808 leaves us with 184.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 184 and continue: 1849 / 656

On to step 6:
The number 656 fits into 1849 2 times, leaving a remainder of 537.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 742.0
Subtracting 1312 from 1849 leaves us with 537.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 537 and repeat the process: 5378 / 656

Moving on to step 7:
5378 divided by 656 is 8 with a remainder of 130.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 7428.0
The remainder is 130 after subtracting 5248 from 5378.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 130, then repeat: 1301 / 656

Step 8:
When dividing 1301 by 656, we get 1 with a remainder of 645.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 74281.0
The remainder is 645 after subtracting 656 from 1301.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 6450 by 656, we get 9 and a remainder of 546.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74281.9
If we subtract 5904 from 6450, we get 546.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
656 goes into 5460 8 times with a remainder of 212.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 74281.98
Subtract 5248 from 5460 to get 212.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 2120 by 656, we get 3 and a remainder of 152.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74281.983
Subtract 1968 from 2120 to get 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
1520 divided by 656 is 2 with a remainder of 208.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74281.9832
If we take 1312 away from 1520, we end up with 208.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2080, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
656 can be fit into 2080 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 112.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 74281.98323
Deduct 1968 from 2080 and we're left with 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 1120 by 656, we get 1 with a remainder of 464.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 74281.983231
Deduct 656 from 1120 and we're left with 464.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4640, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
656 can be fit into 4640 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74281.9832317
Subtract 4592 from 4640 to get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
656 goes into 480 0 times with a remainder of 480.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 74281.9832317
If we subtract 0 from 480, we get 480.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4800, and continue the process.

Our division results in 74281.9832317 with a remaining 4.8e-07.
