We divide 34221 by 48
We want to divide 34221 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 34 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 34 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 34.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 34 leaves us with 34.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 342 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
342 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 6.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7.0
If we subtract 336 from 342, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 62 / 48

On to step 4:
If we divide 62 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 71.0
Subtract 48 from 62 to get 14.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 141 / 48

Step 5:
48 can be fit into 141 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 712.0
If we subtract 96 from 141, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
450 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 18.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 712.9
If we subtract 432 from 450, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 712.93
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 8:
48 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 712.937
Subtract 336 from 360 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
48 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 712.9375
If we take 240 away from 240, 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 712.9375
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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 712.9375
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 712.9375 and a remainder of 0.0.
