We're dividing 23611 by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 23611.

Moving on to step 1:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 48

On to step 2:
23 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 23 leaves us with 23.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 236 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 236 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 192 away from 236, we end up with 44.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 44, then repeat: 441 / 48

Step 4:
48 goes into 441 9 times with a remainder of 9.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we subtract 432 from 441, we get 9.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 91 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 91 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 43.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 491.0
Subtracting 48 from 91 leaves us with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 430 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 491.8
The remainder is 46 after subtracting 384 from 430.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
48 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 491.89
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 432 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 48 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 491.895
Subtract 240 from 280 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 48, we get 8 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 491.8958
Subtracting 384 from 400 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 491.89583
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 491.895833
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 491.895833 and a remainder of 1.6e-06.
