493972 ÷ 43 
Our goal is to divide 493972 by 43.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 43, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 49 / 43

Let's proceed to step 2:
49 divided by 43 is 1 with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 43 from 49 leaves us with 6.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 63 / 43

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 63 by 43, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 43 from 63, we get 20.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 20 and continue with: 209 / 43

Moving on to step 4:
43 goes into 209 4 times with a remainder of 37.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 114.0
If we take 172 away from 209, we end up with 37.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 37 and continue: 377 / 43

Advancing to step 5:
377 divided by 43 is 8 with a remainder of 33.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1148.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 344 from 377.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 332 / 43

Advancing to step 6:
43 goes into 332 7 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 11487.0
Subtracting 301 from 332 leaves us with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 310 by 43, we get 7 with a remainder of 9.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11487.7
Subtracting 301 from 310 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
43 can be fit into 90 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 11487.72
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 86 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 43 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11487.72
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
400 divided by 43 is 9 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11487.7209
Subtract 387 from 400 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 130 by 43, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11487.72093
If we subtract 129 from 130, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
43 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11487.72093
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
43 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11487.7209302
If we take 86 away from 100, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 14:
140 divided by 43 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11487.72093023
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 129 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11487.72093023, and the remainder is 1.1e-08.
