240361 divided by 48 
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 240361.

Step 1:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
48 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 240 / 48

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 240 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 240 away from 240, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 3 / 48

On to step 4:
3 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 50.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 48

On to step 5:
48 can be fit into 36 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 500.0
Deduct 0 from 36 and we're left with 36.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 361 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 361 7 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5007.0
Subtract 336 from 361 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 250 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5007.5
If we subtract 240 from 250, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5007.52
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
40 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5007.52
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
400 divided by 48 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5007.5208
Deduct 384 from 400 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 48, we get 3 with a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5007.52083
If we take 144 away from 160, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 12:
48 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5007.520833
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5007.520833 with a balance of 1.6e-06.
