227973 ÷ 48 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 227973.

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
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 can be fit into 22 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 0 from 22.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 22, then repeat: 227 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
48 can be fit into 227 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 192 from 227 and we're left with 35.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 359 / 48

Step 4:
48 can be fit into 359 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 336 from 359 and we're left with 23.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 23 and continue: 237 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 237 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 45.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 474.0
If we subtract 192 from 237, we get 45.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 453 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
48 can be fit into 453 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4749.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 432 from 453.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
48 goes into 210 4 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4749.4
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 192 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 180 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4749.43
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.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4749.437
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 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4749.4375
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.

On to step 11:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4749.4375
Subtract 0 from 0 to 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 12:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4749.4375
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.

The final result is 4749.4375 with a remainder of 0.0.
