We divide 299374 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 299374 can be divided by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
29 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 29.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 29 and repeat the process: 299 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
299 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 11.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we subtract 288 from 299, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 113 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
48 can be fit into 113 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 62.0
If we subtract 96 from 113, we get 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 177 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 623.0
If we take 144 away from 177, we end up with 33.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 334 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 334 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 46.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6236.0
If we subtract 288 from 334, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 460 by 48, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6236.9
If we take 432 away from 460, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
48 goes into 280 5 times with a remainder of 40.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6236.95
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.

Advancing to step 9:
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: 6236.958
Subtracting 384 from 400 leaves us 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 10:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 6236.9583
Subtract 144 from 160 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.

Advancing to step 11:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6236.95833
Subtract 144 from 160 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.

The final result is 6236.95833 with a remainder of 1.6e-05.
