Let's divide 57898 by 48
Let's see how many times 48 fits into 57898.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 48 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 48

Going ahead to step 2:
48 goes into 57 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 48 away from 57, we end up with 9.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 98 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
48 goes into 98 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 96 from 98.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
48 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 120.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 29, then repeat: 298 / 48

On to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 298 6 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1206.0
Subtracting 288 from 298 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
100 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1206.2
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 40 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1206.2
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 400 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1206.208
If we take 384 away from 400, 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
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: 1206.2083
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 160 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1206.20833
Subtracting 144 from 160 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.

Our division results in 1206.20833 with a remaining 1.6e-05.
