We're dividing 48852747 by 261 
Let's see how many times 261 fits into 48852747.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 261, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 261

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 261 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 48 and we're left with 48.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 48 and repeat the process: 488 / 261

Going ahead to step 3:
488 divided by 261 is 1 with a remainder of 227.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 261 from 488 and we're left with 227.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 227 and continue with: 2275 / 261

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 2275 by 261, we get 8 with a remainder of 187.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 2088 away from 2275, we end up with 187.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 187 and continue with: 1872 / 261

Step 5:
261 can be fit into 1872 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtracting 1827 from 1872 leaves us with 45.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 457 / 261

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 457 by 261, we get 1 with a remainder of 196.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1871.0
The remainder is 196 after subtracting 261 from 457.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 196, then repeat: 1964 / 261

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 261 fits into 1964 7 times, leaving a remainder of 137.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18717.0
If we subtract 1827 from 1964, we get 137.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 137, then repeat: 1377 / 261

On to step 8:
When dividing 1377 by 261, we get 5 with a remainder of 72.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187175.0
Subtract 1305 from 1377 to get 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 261 fits into 720 2 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 187175.2
If we subtract 522 from 720, we get 198.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1980, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
261 can be fit into 1980 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 153.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187175.27
Subtracting 1827 from 1980 leaves us with 153.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1530, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 261 fits into 1530 5 times, leaving a remainder of 225.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187175.275
Deduct 1305 from 1530 and we're left with 225.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 2250 by 261, we get 8 with a remainder of 162.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 187175.2758
The remainder is 162 after subtracting 2088 from 2250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
1620 divided by 261 is 6 with a remainder of 54.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 187175.27586
Subtract 1566 from 1620 to get 54.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 540, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 261 fits into 540 2 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 187175.275862
If we take 522 away from 540, we end up with 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 15:
The number 261 fits into 180 0 times, leaving a remainder of 180.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 187175.275862
The remainder is 180 after subtracting 0 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
261 goes into 1800 6 times with a remainder of 234.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 187175.27586206
Subtracting 1566 from 1800 leaves us with 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 187175.27586206 with a balance of 2.34e-07.
