Let's divide 248285 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 248285 can be divided by 48.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 48

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 24 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 248 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 248 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 8.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 240 from 248 leaves us with 8.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 82 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 82 1 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtracting 48 from 82 leaves us with 34.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 348 / 48

Step 5:
When dividing 348 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 517.0
If we take 336 away from 348, we end up with 12.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 125 / 48

On to step 6:
48 can be fit into 125 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5172.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 96 from 125.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 290 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5172.6
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 288 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5172.6
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5172.604
Deduct 192 from 200 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5172.6041
If we subtract 48 from 80, we 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 11:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5172.60416
If we subtract 288 from 320, we 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.

Step 12:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5172.604166
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 5172.604166 and a remainder of 3.2e-06.
