We're dividing 276742 by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 276742.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 27 / 48

On to step 2:
27 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 27 and we're left with 27.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 276 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 276 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 240 from 276.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 367 / 48

Step 4:
48 goes into 367 7 times with a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 57.0
Deduct 336 from 367 and we're left with 31.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 314 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 314 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 576.0
Deduct 288 from 314 and we're left with 26.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 26, then repeat: 262 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 262 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 22.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5765.0
Subtract 240 from 262 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
48 can be fit into 220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5765.4
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 192 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
48 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5765.45
If we subtract 240 from 280, we 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 400 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5765.458
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.

Step 10:
If we divide 160 by 48, we get 3 and a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5765.4583
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left 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.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5765.45833
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5765.45833, with a leftover of 1.6e-05.
