We're dividing 259023 by 48 
Let's see how many times 48 fits into 259023.

Step 1:
2 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 25 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 25 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 25 leaves us with 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 259 5 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 240 from 259 leaves us with 19.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 190 / 48

Step 4:
190 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 46.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we subtract 144 from 190, we get 46.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 462 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
462 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 539.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 432 from 462.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 303 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 303 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 15.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5396.0
Subtracting 288 from 303 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5396.3
If we subtract 144 from 150, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
48 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5396.31
Subtract 48 from 60 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
48 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5396.312
Deduct 96 from 120 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
240 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5396.3125
Subtract 240 from 240 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 5396.3125
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 12:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5396.3125
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5396.3125, and the remainder is 0.0.
