We divide 998982 by 48
Our goal is to divide 998982 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
48 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 99 / 48

On to step 2:
48 can be fit into 99 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 96 away from 99, we end up with 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 48

On to step 3:
38 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 38, we end up with 38.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 389 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 389 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 5.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 208.0
Subtract 384 from 389 to get 5.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 58 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 58 1 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2081.0
Deduct 48 from 58 and we're left with 10.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 102 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 102 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 20812.0
If we subtract 96 from 102, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
48 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20812.1
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 48 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20812.12
If we take 96 away from 120, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
48 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20812.125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 240 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20812.125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20812.125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 20812.125 and a remainder of 0.0.
