48381 ÷ 51 
Our goal is to divide 48381 by 51.

Advancing to step 1:
51 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 48 / 51

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 51, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 48 leaves us with 48.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 48, then repeat: 483 / 51

Moving on to step 3:
51 can be fit into 483 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtract 459 from 483 to get 24.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 248 / 51

On to step 4:
51 goes into 248 4 times with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 94.0
If we subtract 204 from 248, we get 44.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 441 / 51

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 51 fits into 441 8 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 948.0
Subtracting 408 from 441 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
51 goes into 330 6 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 948.6
Subtract 306 from 330 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 51 fits into 240 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 948.64
If we take 204 away from 240, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
51 goes into 360 7 times with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 948.647
Subtracting 357 from 360 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 51 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 948.647
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
300 divided by 51 is 5 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 948.64705
Deduct 255 from 300 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 450 by 51, we get 8 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 948.647058
If we take 408 away from 450, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
420 divided by 51 is 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 948.6470588
Subtracting 408 from 420 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 948.6470588 with a balance of 1.2e-07.
