We look at the division of 1480172 by 999 
Our goal is to divide 1480172 by 999.

Advancing to step 1:
999 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 999

Advancing to step 2:
999 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 999

Going ahead to step 3:
999 goes into 148 0 times with a remainder of 148.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 148, we end up with 148.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 148, then repeat: 1480 / 999

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 999 fits into 1480 1 times, leaving a remainder of 481.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 999 from 1480 to get 481.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 481 and continue with: 4811 / 999

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 4811 by 999, we get 4 with a remainder of 815.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
If we subtract 3996 from 4811, we get 815.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 815 and continue with: 8157 / 999

Advancing to step 6:
999 can be fit into 8157 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 165.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 148.0
If we take 7992 away from 8157, we end up with 165.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 165, then carry on: 1652 / 999

Advancing to step 7:
999 can be fit into 1652 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 653.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1481.0
Subtract 999 from 1652 to get 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 6530 by 999, we get 6 and a remainder of 536.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1481.6
Subtract 5994 from 6530 to get 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 5360 by 999, we get 5 with a remainder of 365.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1481.65
The remainder is 365 after subtracting 4995 from 5360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 3650 by 999, we get 3 and a remainder of 653.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1481.653
If we subtract 2997 from 3650, we get 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 999 fits into 6530 6 times, leaving a remainder of 536.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1481.6536
Deduct 5994 from 6530 and we're left with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 5360 by 999, we get 5 with a remainder of 365.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1481.65365
Subtracting 4995 from 5360 leaves us with 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
999 can be fit into 3650 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 653.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1481.653653
Deduct 2997 from 3650 and we're left with 653.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6530, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
6530 divided by 999 is 6 with a remainder of 536.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1481.6536536
Subtracting 5994 from 6530 leaves us with 536.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
If we divide 5360 by 999, we get 5 and a remainder of 365.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1481.65365365
Subtract 4995 from 5360 to get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1481.65365365, with a leftover of 3.65e-07.
