We divide 48806980 by 259
We want to divide 48806980 by 259.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 259, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 259

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 259 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 488 / 259

Step 3:
488 divided by 259 is 1 with a remainder of 229.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 259 from 488, we get 229.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 229, then repeat: 2290 / 259

Step 4:
2290 divided by 259 is 8 with a remainder of 218.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 2072 from 2290 to get 218.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 218 and continue with: 2186 / 259

On to step 5:
If we divide 2186 by 259, we get 8 and a remainder of 114.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 188.0
If we take 2072 away from 2186, we end up with 114.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 114, then carry on: 1149 / 259

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1149 by 259, we get 4 with a remainder of 113.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1884.0
The remainder is 113 after subtracting 1036 from 1149.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 113 and continue: 1138 / 259

Moving on to step 7:
The number 259 fits into 1138 4 times, leaving a remainder of 102.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18844.0
Subtracting 1036 from 1138 leaves us with 102.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 102, then repeat: 1020 / 259

Going ahead to step 8:
259 can be fit into 1020 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 243.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 188443.0
If we subtract 777 from 1020, we get 243.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 259 fits into 2430 9 times, leaving a remainder of 99.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 188443.9
The remainder is 99 after subtracting 2331 from 2430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 990, and continue the process.

Step 10:
259 can be fit into 990 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 213.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 188443.93
If we take 777 away from 990, we end up with 213.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 2130 by 259, we get 8 and a remainder of 58.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188443.938
If we take 2072 away from 2130, we end up with 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 580 by 259, we get 2 and a remainder of 62.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 188443.9382
Deduct 518 from 580 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
259 goes into 620 2 times with a remainder of 102.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 188443.93822
The remainder is 102 after subtracting 518 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1020, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 188443.93822, and the remainder is 0.000102.
