We're dividing 488268 by 43 
We want to divide 488268 by 43.

On to step 1:
43 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 43

Step 2:
If we divide 48 by 43, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 43 from 48, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 58 / 43

Advancing to step 3:
43 goes into 58 1 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 43 away from 58, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 152 / 43

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 152 by 43, we get 3 and a remainder of 23.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 113.0
If we take 129 away from 152, we end up with 23.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 236 / 43

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 236 by 43, we get 5 with a remainder of 21.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1135.0
Subtract 215 from 236 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 218 / 43

Let's proceed to step 6:
218 divided by 43 is 5 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11355.0
If we subtract 215 from 218, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
43 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11355.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
43 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11355.06
Subtracting 258 from 300 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 9:
420 divided by 43 is 9 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11355.069
Subtract 387 from 420 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 330 by 43, we get 7 and a remainder of 29.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11355.0697
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 301 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
290 divided by 43 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11355.06976
If we take 258 away from 290, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 43, we get 7 and a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11355.069767
Subtracting 301 from 320 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 190 by 43, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11355.0697674
Subtracting 172 from 190 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
43 can be fit into 180 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11355.06976744
Deduct 172 from 180 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

The final result is 11355.06976744 with a remainder of 8e-09.
