We look at the division of 59548486 by 978 
Our goal is to divide 59548486 by 978.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 978, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 59 / 978

Step 2:
If we divide 59 by 978, we get 0 and a remainder of 59.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 59, we get 59.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 59, then carry on: 595 / 978

Advancing to step 3:
595 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 595.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 595 and we're left with 595.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 595, then repeat: 5954 / 978

Advancing to step 4:
978 goes into 5954 6 times with a remainder of 86.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 5868 from 5954 and we're left with 86.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 868 / 978

Advancing to step 5:
The number 978 fits into 868 0 times, leaving a remainder of 868.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
Subtract 0 from 868 to get 868.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 868, then carry on: 8684 / 978

Going ahead to step 6:
8684 divided by 978 is 8 with a remainder of 860.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 608.0
If we take 7824 away from 8684, we end up with 860.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 860, then carry on: 8608 / 978

Moving on to step 7:
The number 978 fits into 8608 8 times, leaving a remainder of 784.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6088.0
If we subtract 7824 from 8608, we get 784.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 784 and continue with: 7846 / 978

Let's proceed to step 8:
978 can be fit into 7846 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 60888.0
Deduct 7824 from 7846 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 220 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 220.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60888.0
If we take 0 away from 220, we end up with 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Step 10:
978 goes into 2200 2 times with a remainder of 244.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 60888.02
Deduct 1956 from 2200 and we're left with 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 978 fits into 2440 2 times, leaving a remainder of 484.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 60888.022
The remainder is 484 after subtracting 1956 from 2440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4840, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 60888.022 and a remainder of 0.0484.
