We divide 88978450 by 489
Our goal is to divide 88978450 by 489.

Step 1:
The number 489 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 88 / 489

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 88 by 489, we get 0 and a remainder of 88.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 88, we end up with 88.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 88, then repeat: 889 / 489

Going ahead to step 3:
489 goes into 889 1 times with a remainder of 400.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 400 after subtracting 489 from 889.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 400, then repeat: 4007 / 489

On to step 4:
When dividing 4007 by 489, we get 8 with a remainder of 95.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 3912 from 4007 leaves us with 95.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 95 and continue with: 958 / 489

On to step 5:
The number 489 fits into 958 1 times, leaving a remainder of 469.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 181.0
Deduct 489 from 958 and we're left with 469.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 469 and continue: 4694 / 489

Going ahead to step 6:
489 can be fit into 4694 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 293.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1819.0
Deduct 4401 from 4694 and we're left with 293.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 293 and continue with: 2935 / 489

On to step 7:
489 goes into 2935 6 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18196.0
If we take 2934 away from 2935, we end up with 1.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 10 / 489

Step 8:
489 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 181960.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 489 fits into 100 0 times, leaving a remainder of 100.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 181960.0
Deduct 0 from 100 and we're left with 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 1000 by 489, we get 2 and a remainder of 22.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 181960.02
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 978 from 1000.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 220 by 489, we get 0 with a remainder of 220.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 181960.02
The remainder is 220 after subtracting 0 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 489 fits into 2200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 244.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181960.0204
If we subtract 1956 from 2200, we get 244.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2440, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 2440 by 489, we get 4 and a remainder of 484.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 181960.02044
Subtracting 1956 from 2440 leaves us with 484.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4840, and continue the process.

Our division results in 181960.02044 with a remaining 0.000484.
