137539 ÷ 48 
We want to divide 137539 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 48

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 13 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 13.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 13 and we're left with 13.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 137 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
137 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 41.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 96 from 137 to get 41.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 415 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
48 goes into 415 8 times with a remainder of 31.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 384 from 415, we get 31.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 313 / 48

Step 5:
48 goes into 313 6 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 286.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 288 from 313.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 259 / 48

On to step 6:
48 can be fit into 259 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2865.0
If we take 240 away from 259, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 190 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2865.3
Subtract 144 from 190 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 460 by 48, we get 9 with a remainder of 28.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2865.39
If we subtract 432 from 460, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 280 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2865.395
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 240 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
48 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2865.3958
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 384 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2865.39583
Subtracting 144 from 160 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2865.395833
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.

Our division results in 2865.395833 with a remaining 1.6e-06.
