Let's divide 43742 by 48
We want to divide 43742 by 48.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 43 / 48

Step 2:
The number 48 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 0 from 43.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 437 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 437 9 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 9.0
Deduct 432 from 437 and we're left with 5.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 54 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 91.0
Deduct 48 from 54 and we're left with 6.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 6, then repeat: 62 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 62 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 911.0
If we take 48 away from 62, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
48 goes into 140 2 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 911.2
If we subtract 96 from 140, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
48 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 911.29
If we take 432 away from 440, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 8:
48 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 911.291
Subtract 48 from 80 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 911.2916
Subtract 288 from 320 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 911.29166
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The final result is 911.29166 with a remainder of 3.2e-05.
