We divide 489578 by 96
Let's see how many times 96 fits into 489578.

Advancing to step 1:
96 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 96

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 96, we get 0 and a remainder of 48.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 489 / 96

Step 3:
96 goes into 489 5 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 480 away from 489, we end up with 9.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 95 / 96

Going ahead to step 4:
96 goes into 95 0 times with a remainder of 95.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 50.0
Deduct 0 from 95 and we're left with 95.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 95 and repeat the process: 957 / 96

Let's proceed to step 5:
96 goes into 957 9 times with a remainder of 93.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 509.0
The remainder is 93 after subtracting 864 from 957.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 93, then carry on: 938 / 96

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 96 fits into 938 9 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5099.0
If we subtract 864 from 938, we get 74.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 740, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 740 by 96, we get 7 and a remainder of 68.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5099.7
Subtracting 672 from 740 leaves us with 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 680 by 96, we get 7 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5099.77
If we subtract 672 from 680, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5099.77 with a remaining 0.008.
