We're dividing 144232 by 48 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 144232.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 14 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 14 0 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 14 to get 14.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 144 / 48

On to step 3:
144 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 144 from 144.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 2 / 48

On to step 4:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 30.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 23 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 23 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 300.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 23 and continue with: 232 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
48 can be fit into 232 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3004.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 192 from 232.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
400 divided by 48 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3004.8
Subtract 384 from 400 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.

Moving on to step 8:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3004.83
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.

Step 9:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3004.833
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
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 3004.833 with a remainder of 0.0016.
