We look at the division of 48746989 by 821 
Our goal is to divide 48746989 by 821.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 821, 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.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 821

Going ahead to step 2:
48 divided by 821 is 0 with a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 48, we get 48.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 487 / 821

Advancing to step 3:
821 can be fit into 487 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 487.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 487, we get 487.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 487, then repeat: 4874 / 821

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 4874 by 821, we get 5 with a remainder of 769.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 4105 from 4874 leaves us with 769.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 769, then repeat: 7696 / 821

Moving on to step 5:
7696 divided by 821 is 9 with a remainder of 307.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59.0
Subtracting 7389 from 7696 leaves us with 307.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 307, then repeat: 3079 / 821

Moving on to step 6:
821 goes into 3079 3 times with a remainder of 616.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 593.0
Subtracting 2463 from 3079 leaves us with 616.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 616 and repeat the process: 6168 / 821

Advancing to step 7:
The number 821 fits into 6168 7 times, leaving a remainder of 421.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5937.0
The remainder is 421 after subtracting 5747 from 6168.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 421, then carry on: 4219 / 821

Step 8:
If we divide 4219 by 821, we get 5 and a remainder of 114.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59375.0
Subtracting 4105 from 4219 leaves us with 114.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
1140 divided by 821 is 1 with a remainder of 319.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59375.1
If we take 821 away from 1140, we end up with 319.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3190, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 3190 by 821, we get 3 with a remainder of 727.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59375.13
If we take 2463 away from 3190, we end up with 727.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7270, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
821 can be fit into 7270 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 702.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 59375.138
Subtract 6568 from 7270 to get 702.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7020, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 821 fits into 7020 8 times, leaving a remainder of 452.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 59375.1388
Subtract 6568 from 7020 to get 452.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4520, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 59375.1388 and a remainder of 0.00452.
