We divide 48536884 by 872
We want to figure out the number of times 48536884 can be divided by 872.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 872, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 872

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 872, we get 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.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 485 / 872

Moving on to step 3:
872 can be fit into 485 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 485.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 485 and we're left with 485.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 485 and continue: 4853 / 872

On to step 4:
The number 872 fits into 4853 5 times, leaving a remainder of 493.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 493 after subtracting 4360 from 4853.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 493, then repeat: 4936 / 872

Let's proceed to step 5:
872 can be fit into 4936 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 576.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55.0
Deduct 4360 from 4936 and we're left with 576.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 576, then repeat: 5768 / 872

Advancing to step 6:
872 can be fit into 5768 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 536.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 556.0
The remainder is 536 after subtracting 5232 from 5768.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 536, then repeat: 5368 / 872

Moving on to step 7:
The number 872 fits into 5368 6 times, leaving a remainder of 136.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5566.0
If we take 5232 away from 5368, we end up with 136.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 136 and repeat the process: 1364 / 872

Step 8:
872 can be fit into 1364 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 492.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55661.0
If we take 872 away from 1364, we end up with 492.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4920, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
872 can be fit into 4920 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 560.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 55661.5
Deduct 4360 from 4920 and we're left with 560.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 872 fits into 5600 6 times, leaving a remainder of 368.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55661.56
Subtracting 5232 from 5600 leaves us with 368.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3680, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 3680 by 872, we get 4 with a remainder of 192.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 55661.564
The remainder is 192 after subtracting 3488 from 3680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1920, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
872 can be fit into 1920 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 176.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 55661.5642
If we subtract 1744 from 1920, we get 176.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1760, and continue the process.

Step 13:
872 goes into 1760 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 55661.56422
Deduct 1744 from 1760 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 55661.56422 and a remainder of 1.6e-05.
