151729 divided by 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 151729 can be divided by 48.

Let's proceed to step 1:
48 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 15 0 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 15 to get 15.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 151 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 151 3 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we subtract 144 from 151, we get 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
77 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 29.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 31.0
If we subtract 48 from 77, we get 29.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 292 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 292 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 316.0
If we subtract 288 from 292, we get 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 48

On to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 49 1 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3161.0
If we subtract 48 from 49, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3161.0
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3161.02
Subtract 96 from 100 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 9:
When dividing 40 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3161.02
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 48 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3161.0208
Deduct 384 from 400 and we're left 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.

On to step 11:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3161.02083
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.

Moving on to step 12:
48 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3161.020833
Subtracting 144 from 160 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.

The final outcome is 3161.020833, with a leftover of 1.6e-06.
