We're dividing 200431 by 48 
We want to divide 200431 by 48.

Going ahead 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.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 20 / 48

Step 2:
If we divide 20 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 20, then repeat: 200 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
48 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 192 away from 200, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 48

Step 4:
48 can be fit into 84 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 48 from 84.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 363 / 48

Step 5:
363 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 417.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 336 from 363.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 271 / 48

Step 6:
If we divide 271 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 31.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4175.0
Deduct 240 from 271 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
48 can be fit into 310 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4175.6
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 288 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 220 4 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4175.64
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 9:
280 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 40.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4175.645
Deduct 240 from 280 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
48 goes into 400 8 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4175.6458
Deduct 384 from 400 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.

Advancing 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: 4175.64583
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 12:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4175.645833
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.

Our division results in 4175.645833 with a remaining 1.6e-06.
