1. **State the problem:** We need to find the result of dividing 20000 by 480. 2. **Formula used:** Division is represented as $$\frac{a}{b}$$ where $a$ is the numerator and $b$ is the denominator. 3. **Apply the formula:** $$\frac{20000}{480}$$ 4. **Simplify the fraction:** Both numerator and denominator can be divided by 10: $$\frac{\cancel{20000}^{2000}}{\cancel{480}^{48}}$$ 5. **Further simplify:** Both 2000 and 48 can be divided by 4: $$\frac{\cancel{2000}^{500}}{\cancel{48}^{12}}$$ 6. **Divide 500 by 12:** $$500 \div 12 = 41.666\ldots$$ 7. **Final answer:** $$\frac{20000}{480} = 41.6667$$ (rounded to 4 decimal places)
