Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 138

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 138 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 489 / 138

On to step 3:
489 divided by 138 is 3 with a remainder of 75.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 75 after subtracting 414 from 489.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 75 and repeat the process: 753 / 138

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 753 by 138, we get 5 and a remainder of 63.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
The remainder is 63 after subtracting 690 from 753.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 63, then carry on: 638 / 138

Step 5:
138 can be fit into 638 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 86.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 354.0
Subtract 552 from 638 to get 86.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 86 and repeat the process: 868 / 138

On to step 6:
138 can be fit into 868 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3546.0
Deduct 828 from 868 and we're left with 40.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 406 / 138

Moving on to step 7:
The number 138 fits into 406 2 times, leaving a remainder of 130.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35462.0
Subtracting 276 from 406 leaves us with 130.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 130, then repeat: 1306 / 138

Let's proceed to step 8:
138 can be fit into 1306 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 64.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 354629.0
Subtracting 1242 from 1306 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 640 by 138, we get 4 with a remainder of 88.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 354629.4
Deduct 552 from 640 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
138 goes into 880 6 times with a remainder of 52.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 354629.46
Subtract 828 from 880 to get 52.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
138 goes into 520 3 times with a remainder of 106.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 354629.463
Subtract 414 from 520 to get 106.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1060, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 1060 by 138, we get 7 and a remainder of 94.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 354629.4637
Subtract 966 from 1060 to get 94.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 940, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
940 divided by 138 is 6 with a remainder of 112.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 354629.46376
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 828 from 940.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
138 goes into 1120 8 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 354629.463768
Subtract 1104 from 1120 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.

On to step 15:
If we divide 160 by 138, we get 1 and a remainder of 22.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 354629.4637681
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up with 22.
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 16:
138 can be fit into 220 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 82.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 354629.46376811
Subtract 138 from 220 to get 82.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 354629.46376811 with a balance of 8.2e-08.
