963531 divided by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 963531.

On to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 9, we end up with 9.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 96 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 96 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 96 from 96 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 3 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
3 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
Deduct 0 from 3 and we're left with 3.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 35 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 35 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 35.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 200.0
Subtracting 0 from 35 leaves us with 35.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 353 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
48 goes into 353 7 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2007.0
If we take 336 away from 353, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 171 / 48

On to step 6:
48 can be fit into 171 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 27.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20073.0
Subtracting 144 from 171 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 270 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20073.5
If we take 240 away from 270, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 48 fits into 300 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20073.56
If we take 288 away from 300, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 120 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20073.562
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 96 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
48 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20073.5625
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 20073.5625
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.

On to step 12:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20073.5625
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.

After the division, we end up with 20073.5625 and a remainder of 0.0.
