494871 ÷ 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 494871.

Advancing to step 1:
48 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 48

Step 2:
When dividing 49 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 48 from 49 to get 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 48

Going ahead to step 3:
48 goes into 14 0 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
48 goes into 148 3 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 103.0
If we subtract 144 from 148, we get 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
47 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1030.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 471 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
471 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10309.0
Subtract 432 from 471 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 390 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10309.8
Deduct 384 from 390 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 8:
60 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10309.81
If we take 48 away from 60, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
48 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10309.812
Deduct 96 from 120 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 240 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10309.8125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 240 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10309.8125
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10309.8125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10309.8125 with a remaining 0.0.
