We divide 525501 by 48
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 525501.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
52 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 48 from 52, we get 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 45 / 48

Step 3:
The number 48 fits into 45 0 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 45 to get 45.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 455 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
48 goes into 455 9 times with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 109.0
If we subtract 432 from 455, we get 23.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 230 / 48

On to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1094.0
Subtracting 192 from 230 leaves us with 38.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 381 / 48

On to step 6:
When dividing 381 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 45.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10947.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 336 from 381.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 7:
48 goes into 450 9 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 10947.9
If we take 432 away from 450, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
180 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 36.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10947.93
Subtract 144 from 180 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10947.937
Deduct 336 from 360 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:
48 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10947.9375
If we subtract 240 from 240, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10947.9375
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10947.9375
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 final outcome is 10947.9375, with a leftover of 0.0.
