We look at the division of 48722978 by 470 
We want to figure out the number of times 48722978 can be divided by 470.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 470, 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.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 470

Going ahead to step 2:
470 can be fit into 48 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 48, we end up with 48.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 487 / 470

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 487 by 470, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 470 from 487 and we're left with 17.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 172 / 470

Step 4:
If we divide 172 by 470, we get 0 and a remainder of 172.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 172 leaves us with 172.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 172 and continue: 1722 / 470

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 1722 by 470, we get 3 with a remainder of 312.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 103.0
Subtracting 1410 from 1722 leaves us with 312.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 312 and repeat the process: 3129 / 470

Advancing to step 6:
3129 divided by 470 is 6 with a remainder of 309.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1036.0
Subtracting 2820 from 3129 leaves us with 309.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 309, then repeat: 3097 / 470

Moving on to step 7:
3097 divided by 470 is 6 with a remainder of 277.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10366.0
If we take 2820 away from 3097, we end up with 277.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 277, then carry on: 2778 / 470

Step 8:
If we divide 2778 by 470, we get 5 and a remainder of 428.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 103665.0
Deduct 2350 from 2778 and we're left with 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 4280 by 470, we get 9 with a remainder of 50.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 103665.9
Subtract 4230 from 4280 to get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
470 goes into 500 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 103665.91
Subtract 470 from 500 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 300 by 470, we get 0 and a remainder of 300.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 103665.91
The remainder is 300 after subtracting 0 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3000, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
470 can be fit into 3000 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 180.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 103665.9106
If we subtract 2820 from 3000, we get 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
470 can be fit into 1800 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 390.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 103665.91063
The remainder is 390 after subtracting 1410 from 1800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3900, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 3900 by 470, we get 8 and a remainder of 140.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 103665.910638
The remainder is 140 after subtracting 3760 from 3900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1400, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
1400 divided by 470 is 2 with a remainder of 460.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 103665.9106382
If we subtract 940 from 1400, we get 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4600, and continue the process.

Step 16:
470 can be fit into 4600 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 370.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 103665.91063829
If we take 4230 away from 4600, we end up with 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3700, and continue the process.

Our division results in 103665.91063829 with a remaining 3.7e-07.
