We look at the division of 961885 by 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 961885 can be divided by 48.

Step 1:
9 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 96 / 48

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 96 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 96 from 96 leaves us with 0.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 1 / 48

On to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
18 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 200.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 188 / 48

On to step 5:
If we divide 188 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2003.0
Deduct 144 from 188 and we're left with 44.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 445 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
48 can be fit into 445 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20039.0
Deduct 432 from 445 and we're left with 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 7:
The number 48 fits into 130 2 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20039.2
If we take 96 away from 130, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 20039.27
Subtracting 336 from 340 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
40 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20039.27
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 48 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20039.2708
Subtracting 384 from 400 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 11:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20039.27083
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 12:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20039.270833
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 20039.270833 with a remaining 1.6e-06.
