Let's divide 407248 by 49
We want to divide 407248 by 49.

On to step 1:
49 goes into 4 0 times with 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.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 49

Going ahead to step 2:
49 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 407 / 49

Step 3:
49 can be fit into 407 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 392 from 407, we get 15.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 152 / 49

On to step 4:
49 goes into 152 3 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we take 147 away from 152, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 54 / 49

Advancing to step 5:
54 divided by 49 is 1 with a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 831.0
If we subtract 49 from 54, we get 5.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 58 / 49

Going ahead to step 6:
49 goes into 58 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8311.0
Subtracting 49 from 58 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 49, we get 1 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8311.1
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 49 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 49 fits into 410 8 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8311.18
Subtract 392 from 410 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
49 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8311.183
Subtracting 147 from 180 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
330 divided by 49 is 6 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8311.1836
Subtract 294 from 330 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
49 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8311.18367
Subtract 343 from 360 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 49 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8311.183673
Deduct 147 from 170 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 230 by 49, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8311.1836734
Subtracting 196 from 230 leaves us with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
340 divided by 49 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8311.18367346
Subtract 294 from 340 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Our division results in 8311.18367346 with a remaining 4.6e-08.
