We look at the division of 48344482 by 259 
Our goal is to divide 48344482 by 259.

Step 1:
259 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 259

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 48 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 0 from 48.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 483 / 259

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 483 by 259, we get 1 with a remainder of 224.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 224 after subtracting 259 from 483.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 224, then repeat: 2244 / 259

Going ahead to step 4:
259 goes into 2244 8 times with a remainder of 172.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 2072 from 2244 to get 172.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 172 and repeat the process: 1724 / 259

On to step 5:
1724 divided by 259 is 6 with a remainder of 170.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 186.0
Subtract 1554 from 1724 to get 170.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 170, then carry on: 1704 / 259

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 1704 by 259, we get 6 with a remainder of 150.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1866.0
Deduct 1554 from 1704 and we're left with 150.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 150, then repeat: 1508 / 259

Advancing to step 7:
The number 259 fits into 1508 5 times, leaving a remainder of 213.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18665.0
Subtracting 1295 from 1508 leaves us with 213.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 213 and repeat the process: 2132 / 259

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 2132 by 259, we get 8 with a remainder of 60.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 186658.0
Subtracting 2072 from 2132 leaves us with 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 259 fits into 600 2 times, leaving a remainder of 82.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 186658.2
Subtracting 518 from 600 leaves us with 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
259 goes into 820 3 times with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 186658.23
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 777 from 820.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 430 by 259, we get 1 with a remainder of 171.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 186658.231
If we take 259 away from 430, we end up with 171.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1710, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1710 by 259, we get 6 and a remainder of 156.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 186658.2316
Subtracting 1554 from 1710 leaves us with 156.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1560, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 1560 by 259, we get 6 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 186658.23166
Deduct 1554 from 1560 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 186658.23166, and the remainder is 6e-06.
