521477 ÷ 48 
Our goal is to divide 521477 by 48.

On to step 1:
The number 48 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 52 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 52 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 48 from 52, we get 4.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 41 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 41.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 0 from 41.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 414 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
414 divided by 48 is 8 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108.0
Subtract 384 from 414 to get 30.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 30, then repeat: 307 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
307 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 19.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1086.0
Deduct 288 from 307 and we're left with 19.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 197 / 48

On to step 6:
197 divided by 48 is 4 with a remainder of 5.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10864.0
If we take 192 away from 197, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 50 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10864.1
Subtracting 48 from 50 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 20 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10864.1
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10864.104
Deduct 192 from 200 and we're left with 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 10:
48 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10864.1041
If we take 48 away from 80, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10864.10416
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10864.104166
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 10864.104166, and the remainder is 3.2e-06.
