We divide 396117 by 48
We want to divide 396117 by 48.

Step 1:
48 goes into 3 0 times with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 39 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 39 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 39, we end up with 39.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 396 / 48

On to step 3:
48 can be fit into 396 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 384 from 396 and we're left with 12.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 121 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
48 goes into 121 2 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 82.0
Subtracting 96 from 121 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 251 / 48

Step 5:
If we divide 251 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 11.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 825.0
Subtracting 240 from 251 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 117 by 48, we get 2 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8252.0
If we take 96 away from 117, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 210 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8252.4
Subtracting 192 from 210 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
48 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 8252.43
If we subtract 144 from 180, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8252.437
Subtracting 336 from 360 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 10:
48 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8252.4375
If we take 240 away from 240, 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.

Moving on to step 11:
0 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8252.4375
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8252.4375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 8252.4375 with a balance of 0.0.
