261143 divided by 48 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 261143.

Going ahead to step 1:
48 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 26 / 48

On to step 2:
48 can be fit into 26 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 26, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 261 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
261 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 21.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 240 from 261 to get 21.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 211 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 211 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 19.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54.0
Subtract 192 from 211 to get 19.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 19, then carry on: 194 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 194 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 544.0
Deduct 192 from 194 and we're left with 2.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 23 / 48

On to step 6:
48 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5440.0
Deduct 0 from 23 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 230 by 48, we get 4 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5440.4
Deduct 192 from 230 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
48 goes into 380 7 times with a remainder of 44.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5440.47
Deduct 336 from 380 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
440 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5440.479
Deduct 432 from 440 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 80 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5440.4791
If we take 48 away from 80, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5440.47916
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5440.479166
Subtract 288 from 320 to 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.

The final result is 5440.479166 with a remainder of 3.2e-06.
