785279 divided by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 785279.

Advancing to step 1:
7 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 78 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 78 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 30.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 48 from 78 to get 30.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 30, then repeat: 305 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
48 can be fit into 305 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Deduct 288 from 305 and we're left with 17.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 172 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
172 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 28.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 163.0
Subtract 144 from 172 to get 28.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 287 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
48 can be fit into 287 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1635.0
Subtract 240 from 287 to get 47.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 47, then repeat: 479 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 479 9 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16359.0
The remainder is 47 after subtracting 432 from 479.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 470 9 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16359.9
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 432 from 470.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 380 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16359.97
If we subtract 336 from 380, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
440 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 16359.979
If we subtract 432 from 440, we get 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.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16359.9791
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 48 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16359.97916
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
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:
If we divide 320 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16359.979166
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us 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.

The final result is 16359.979166 with a remainder of 3.2e-06.
