686666 ÷ 48 
We want to figure out the number of times 686666 can be divided by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
48 goes into 6 0 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 48

On to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 68 1 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 48 from 68 leaves us with 20.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 206 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 206 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
Deduct 192 from 206 and we're left with 14.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 146 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 146 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 143.0
If we take 144 away from 146, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 26 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 26 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 26.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1430.0
Subtracting 0 from 26 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 266 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
48 can be fit into 266 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14305.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 240 from 266.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
48 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 14305.5
Deduct 240 from 260 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14305.54
If we subtract 192 from 200, 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 9:
If we divide 80 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14305.541
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.

Step 10:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 14305.5416
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 320 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14305.54166
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 14305.54166 with a balance of 3.2e-05.
