Let's divide 247317 by 48
We want to divide 247317 by 48.

On to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 247 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 247 5 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 240 from 247 to get 7.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 73 / 48

Step 4:
When dividing 73 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
If we take 48 away from 73, we end up with 25.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 251 / 48

On to step 5:
When dividing 251 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 515.0
If we subtract 240 from 251, we get 11.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 11 and repeat the process: 117 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
48 can be fit into 117 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5152.0
Subtract 96 from 117 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
210 divided by 48 is 4 with a remainder of 18.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5152.4
Subtract 192 from 210 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5152.43
Deduct 144 from 180 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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5152.437
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
48 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5152.4375
Deduct 240 from 240 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.

On to step 11:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5152.4375
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 0 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5152.4375
If we subtract 0 from 0, 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.

The quotient of the division is 5152.4375, and the remainder is 0.0.
