Let's divide 720526 by 48
We want to divide 720526 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
7 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 48 away from 72, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 240 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 240 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 240 from 240, we get 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 48

On to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 150.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
52 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1501.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 48 from 52.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 48

On to step 6:
When dividing 46 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15010.0
Deduct 0 from 46 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.

Moving on to step 7:
460 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15010.9
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 432 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15010.95
Subtract 240 from 280 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15010.958
Subtract 384 from 400 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15010.9583
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15010.95833
If we subtract 144 from 160, we 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.

The quotient of the division is 15010.95833, and the remainder is 1.6e-05.
