We're dividing 223331 by 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 223331 can be divided by 48.

Step 1:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 22 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 22 0 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 223 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
48 can be fit into 223 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 192 from 223 leaves us with 31.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 313 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 313 6 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 288 from 313, we get 25.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 253 / 48

On to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 253 5 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 465.0
Deduct 240 from 253 and we're left with 13.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 48

On to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 131 2 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4652.0
If we subtract 96 from 131, we get 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Step 7:
If we divide 350 by 48, we get 7 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4652.7
Subtracting 336 from 350 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 140 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4652.72
Deduct 96 from 140 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
48 can be fit into 440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4652.729
Subtract 432 from 440 to 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.

On to step 10:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4652.7291
Subtracting 48 from 80 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.

On to step 11:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4652.72916
If we subtract 288 from 320, we get 32.
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:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4652.729166
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.

Our division results in 4652.729166 with a remaining 3.2e-06.
