Let's divide 457988 by 43
Let's see how many times 43 fits into 457988.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 43

On to step 2:
The number 43 fits into 45 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 43 from 45, we get 2.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 27 / 43

On to step 3:
43 can be fit into 27 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 27, we end up with 27.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 279 / 43

On to step 4:
If we divide 279 by 43, we get 6 and a remainder of 21.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 106.0
Subtract 258 from 279 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 218 / 43

Advancing to step 5:
The number 43 fits into 218 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1065.0
Subtract 215 from 218 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 43

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 38 by 43, we get 0 with a remainder of 38.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10650.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 380 by 43, we get 8 with a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10650.8
If we subtract 344 from 380, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 360 by 43, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10650.88
If we take 344 away from 360, we end up with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10650.88 and a remainder of 0.016.
