Let's divide 696459 by 48
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 696459.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 6 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 69 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
48 can be fit into 69 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 48 from 69 and we're left with 21.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 216 / 48

On to step 3:
When dividing 216 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 14.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 192 from 216.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 244 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
244 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 145.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 240 from 244.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 45 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
48 can be fit into 45 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1450.0
If we subtract 0 from 45, we get 45.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 459 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 459 by 48, we get 9 and a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14509.0
Deduct 432 from 459 and we're left 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.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14509.5
Deduct 240 from 270 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 300 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 12.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14509.56
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.

Advancing to step 9:
48 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14509.562
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
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: 14509.5625
Subtracting 240 from 240 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14509.5625
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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 14509.5625
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.

The final result is 14509.5625 with a remainder of 0.0.
