Let's divide 988468 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 988468 can be divided by 48.

Step 1:
48 can be fit into 9 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
98 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 96 from 98 to get 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 28 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 284 / 48

Step 4:
284 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 44.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 205.0
Subtract 240 from 284 to get 44.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 446 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
48 can be fit into 446 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2059.0
If we take 432 away from 446, we end up with 14.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 14 and continue: 148 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
48 goes into 148 3 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20593.0
Subtract 144 from 148 to get 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 7:
If we divide 40 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20593.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
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: 20593.08
Subtract 384 from 400 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 160 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20593.083
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20593.0833
If we subtract 144 from 160, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 20593.0833 with a remainder of 0.00016.
