171761 divided by 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 171761 can be divided by 48.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 48 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 17 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
17 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 17, we get 17.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 171 / 48

Step 3:
The number 48 fits into 171 3 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtracting 144 from 171 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 277 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 277 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtract 240 from 277 to get 37.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 376 / 48

Step 5:
48 can be fit into 376 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 357.0
If we subtract 336 from 376, we get 40.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 401 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 401 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3578.0
If we subtract 384 from 401, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3578.3
Subtracting 144 from 170 leaves us with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 260 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 20.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3578.35
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 240 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
48 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3578.354
Subtracting 192 from 200 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
48 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3578.3541
Subtracting 48 from 80 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3578.35416
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 12:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3578.354166
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3578.354166, and the remainder is 3.2e-06.
