We divide 984739 by 48
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 984739.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 48 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 goes into 98 2 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 96 away from 98, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 24 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 247 / 48

On to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 247 5 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 205.0
If we take 240 away from 247, we end up with 7.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 73 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 73 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2051.0
If we take 48 away from 73, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 259 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 259 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 20515.0
Deduct 240 from 259 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
48 goes into 190 3 times with a remainder of 46.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20515.3
Deduct 144 from 190 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 460 by 48, we get 9 and a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20515.39
Subtract 432 from 460 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
280 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20515.395
Subtracting 240 from 280 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
400 divided by 48 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20515.3958
Subtracting 384 from 400 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20515.39583
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20515.395833
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 20515.395833 and a remainder of 1.6e-06.
