148487 ÷ 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 148487.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 14 / 48

On to step 2:
48 can be fit into 14 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 14 leaves us with 14.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 148 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 148 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 144 from 148 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 48

On to step 4:
When dividing 44 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we take 0 away from 44, we end up with 44.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 448 / 48

On to step 5:
If we divide 448 by 48, we get 9 and a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 309.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 432 from 448.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 16 and repeat the process: 167 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
167 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 23.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3093.0
Subtract 144 from 167 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 3093.4
If we take 192 away from 230, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 380 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3093.47
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 336 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 440 by 48, we get 9 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3093.479
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 432 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3093.4791
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 48 from 80.
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 11:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3093.47916
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.

Moving on to step 12:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3093.479166
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 3093.479166 with a remainder of 3.2e-06.
