Let's divide 722879 by 48
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 722879.

On to step 1:
7 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 72 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 48 from 72 leaves us with 24.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 242 / 48

On to step 3:
242 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 2.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 240 from 242 to get 2.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 28 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
48 can be fit into 28 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 150.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 287 / 48

Going ahead to step 5:
48 can be fit into 287 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1505.0
Deduct 240 from 287 and we're left with 47.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 479 / 48

Going ahead to step 6:
479 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 47.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15059.0
If we subtract 432 from 479, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 470 by 48, we get 9 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15059.9
Deduct 432 from 470 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
380 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15059.97
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.

On to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 15059.979
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:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15059.9791
Deduct 48 from 80 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 11:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15059.97916
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
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 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: 15059.979166
If we take 288 away from 320, 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.

The final result is 15059.979166 with a remainder of 3.2e-06.
