5555487 ÷ 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 5555487.

On to step 1:
5 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
55 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 48 from 55 leaves us with 7.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 75 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 75 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 27.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 48 from 75 to get 27.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 275 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 275 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 115.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 240 from 275.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 354 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 354 by 48, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1157.0
If we subtract 336 from 354, we get 18.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 188 / 48

Step 6:
188 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11573.0
Deduct 144 from 188 and we're left with 44.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 447 / 48

Step 7:
48 goes into 447 9 times with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 115739.0
If we subtract 432 from 447, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
48 goes into 150 3 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 115739.3
Subtract 144 from 150 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 60 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 115739.31
Deduct 48 from 60 and we're left 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
48 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 115739.312
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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 240 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 0.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 115739.3125
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 240 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 12:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 115739.3125
Deduct 0 from 0 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.

Step 13:
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: 115739.3125
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.

After the division, we end up with 115739.3125 and a remainder of 0.0.
