We divide 48230501 by 257
We want to figure out the number of times 48230501 can be divided by 257.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 257, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 257

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 257, we get 0 with a remainder of 48.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 48 to get 48.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 48, then repeat: 482 / 257

Let's proceed to step 3:
257 can be fit into 482 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 225.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 257 from 482 to get 225.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 225 and continue with: 2253 / 257

Step 4:
If we divide 2253 by 257, we get 8 and a remainder of 197.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 2056 away from 2253, we end up with 197.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 197, then carry on: 1970 / 257

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 257 fits into 1970 7 times, leaving a remainder of 171.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187.0
Subtracting 1799 from 1970 leaves us with 171.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 171 and continue: 1715 / 257

Step 6:
1715 divided by 257 is 6 with a remainder of 173.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1876.0
If we subtract 1542 from 1715, we get 173.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 173 and continue: 1730 / 257

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 1730 by 257, we get 6 and a remainder of 188.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18766.0
Subtracting 1542 from 1730 leaves us with 188.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 188, then repeat: 1881 / 257

Advancing to step 8:
257 goes into 1881 7 times with a remainder of 82.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187667.0
The remainder is 82 after subtracting 1799 from 1881.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 820, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
257 can be fit into 820 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 187667.3
Subtracting 771 from 820 leaves us with 49.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 490, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 490 by 257, we get 1 with a remainder of 233.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187667.31
Subtract 257 from 490 to get 233.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 257 fits into 2330 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 187667.319
Deduct 2313 from 2330 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
257 can be fit into 170 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 170.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 187667.319
If we take 0 away from 170, we end up with 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 257 fits into 1700 6 times, leaving a remainder of 158.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 187667.31906
Subtracting 1542 from 1700 leaves us with 158.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1580, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 257 fits into 1580 6 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187667.319066
Subtracting 1542 from 1580 leaves us 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.

The final result is 187667.319066 with a remainder of 3.8e-06.
