We divide 4971178 by 248
We want to divide 4971178 by 248.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 248 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 248

On to step 2:
49 divided by 248 is 0 with a remainder of 49.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 49, we get 49.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 49, then carry on: 497 / 248

On to step 3:
248 can be fit into 497 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 496 from 497, we get 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 248

Going ahead to step 4:
11 divided by 248 is 0 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 111 / 248

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 111 by 248, we get 0 and a remainder of 111.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 200.0
Subtracting 0 from 111 leaves us with 111.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 111 and continue with: 1117 / 248

Moving on to step 6:
248 can be fit into 1117 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 125.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2004.0
Subtract 992 from 1117 to get 125.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 125 and continue with: 1258 / 248

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 248 fits into 1258 5 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20045.0
If we subtract 1240 from 1258, we 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
248 goes into 180 0 times with a remainder of 180.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20045.0
Subtract 0 from 180 to get 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
248 goes into 1800 7 times with a remainder of 64.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20045.07
Deduct 1736 from 1800 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 248, we get 2 and a remainder of 144.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20045.072
The remainder is 144 after subtracting 496 from 640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 1440 by 248, we get 5 and a remainder of 200.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20045.0725
Deduct 1240 from 1440 and we're left with 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2000, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
248 can be fit into 2000 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20045.07258
Deduct 1984 from 2000 and we're left 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 13:
When dividing 160 by 248, we get 0 with a remainder of 160.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20045.07258
Deduct 0 from 160 and we're left with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 1600 by 248, we get 6 with a remainder of 112.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20045.0725806
If we subtract 1488 from 1600, we get 112.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
248 can be fit into 1120 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 128.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20045.07258064
Subtract 992 from 1120 to get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 20045.07258064, with a leftover of 1.28e-07.
