We divide 156458 by 48
Our goal is to divide 156458 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
1 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 1, we get 1.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 15 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
48 goes into 15 0 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 15 and we're left with 15.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 156 / 48

Step 3:
48 goes into 156 3 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 144 from 156.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 124 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
124 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 32.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 96 from 124.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 28 and continue with: 285 / 48

On to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 285 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 325.0
If we take 240 away from 285, we end up with 45.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 458 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 458 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3259.0
Subtract 432 from 458 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
48 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3259.5
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.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3259.54
If we subtract 192 from 200, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3259.541
Subtract 48 from 80 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3259.5416
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3259.54166
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 3259.54166 and a remainder of 3.2e-05.
