We're dividing 438999 by 83 
We're looking to find how many times 83 goes into 438999.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 83, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 83

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 43 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 43.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 43 to get 43.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 438 / 83

Step 3:
When dividing 438 by 83, we get 5 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 415 from 438 to get 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 83

On to step 4:
83 goes into 239 2 times with a remainder of 73.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we subtract 166 from 239, we get 73.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 739 / 83

On to step 5:
If we divide 739 by 83, we get 8 and a remainder of 75.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 528.0
Subtracting 664 from 739 leaves us with 75.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 75, then carry on: 759 / 83

Advancing to step 6:
The number 83 fits into 759 9 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5289.0
If we take 747 away from 759, 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 7:
120 divided by 83 is 1 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5289.1
Subtracting 83 from 120 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 83 fits into 370 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5289.14
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 332 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
83 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5289.144
If we subtract 332 from 380, we get 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

The final result is 5289.144 with a remainder of 0.0048.
