480961 ÷ 28 
We want to figure out the number of times 480961 can be divided by 28.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 28 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
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 / 28

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 28 from 48 leaves us with 20.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 200 / 28

On to step 3:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 196 from 200 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 28

Going ahead to step 4:
49 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 171.0
If we take 28 away from 49, we end up with 21.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 216 / 28

Step 5:
28 goes into 216 7 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1717.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 196 from 216.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 201 / 28

Advancing to step 6:
The number 28 fits into 201 7 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17177.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 196 from 201.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
50 divided by 28 is 1 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17177.1
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 28 from 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
220 divided by 28 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17177.17
If we take 196 away from 220, 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.

Advancing to step 9:
28 can be fit into 240 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 17177.178
If we take 224 away from 240, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
28 can be fit into 160 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 17177.1785
Subtracting 140 from 160 leaves us 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 11:
The number 28 fits into 200 7 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17177.17857
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 196 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 28, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17177.178571
Subtract 28 from 40 to get 12.
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 13:
If we divide 120 by 28, we get 4 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 17177.1785714
If we take 112 away from 120, we end up 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.

Step 14:
28 can be fit into 80 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17177.17857142
If we subtract 56 from 80, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 17177.17857142, and the remainder is 2.4e-08.
