We're dividing 723417 by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 723417.

On to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 72 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 48 from 72 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 243 / 48

On to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 243 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 240 away from 243, we end up with 3.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 34 / 48

On to step 4:
If we divide 34 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 34.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 150.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 0 from 34.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 341 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 341 by 48, we get 7 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1507.0
Subtract 336 from 341 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 57 / 48

Step 6:
48 goes into 57 1 times with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15071.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 48 from 57.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 90 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 42.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15071.1
Subtract 48 from 90 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 420 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 36.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15071.18
Deduct 384 from 420 and we're left 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 9:
48 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15071.187
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 48 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15071.1875
If we subtract 240 from 240, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15071.1875
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15071.1875
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 15071.1875, and the remainder is 0.0.
