478835 ÷ 54 
We're looking to find how many times 54 goes into 478835.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 54, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 54

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 47 by 54, we get 0 and a remainder of 47.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 478 / 54

Step 3:
The number 54 fits into 478 8 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtracting 432 from 478 leaves us with 46.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 468 / 54

On to step 4:
The number 54 fits into 468 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 88.0
Subtract 432 from 468 to get 36.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 363 / 54

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 363 by 54, we get 6 and a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 886.0
If we take 324 away from 363, we end up with 39.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 395 / 54

Going ahead to step 6:
395 divided by 54 is 7 with a remainder of 17.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8867.0
If we subtract 378 from 395, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 54 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8867.3
Deduct 162 from 170 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
54 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8867.31
Subtracting 54 from 80 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 260 by 54, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8867.314
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 216 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 440 by 54, we get 8 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8867.3148
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 432 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
54 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 8867.31481
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 54 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 54 fits into 260 4 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8867.314814
Subtracting 216 from 260 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 440 by 54, we get 8 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8867.3148148
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 432 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
54 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8867.31481481
Subtract 54 from 80 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final result is 8867.31481481 with a remainder of 2.6e-08.
