Let's divide 48798 by 17
Our goal is to divide 48798 by 17.

Advancing to step 1:
17 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 17

Step 2:
The number 17 fits into 48 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 34 from 48 and we're left with 14.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 147 / 17

Let's proceed to step 3:
17 can be fit into 147 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
Subtracting 136 from 147 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 119 / 17

On to step 4:
The number 17 fits into 119 7 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 287.0
Subtracting 119 from 119 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 17

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 8 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2870.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 80 by 17, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2870.4
If we take 68 away from 80, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 120 by 17, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2870.47
Subtracting 119 from 120 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2870.47
Subtracting 0 from 10 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.

On to step 9:
17 goes into 100 5 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2870.4705
If we take 85 away from 100, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Step 10:
17 can be fit into 150 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2870.47058
Subtracting 136 from 150 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 17 fits into 140 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2870.470588
Subtract 136 from 140 to 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.

The quotient of the division is 2870.470588, and the remainder is 4e-07.
