48691378 ÷ 344 
We want to figure out the number of times 48691378 can be divided by 344.

Moving on to step 1:
4 divided by 344 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 344

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 344 fits into 48 0 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 48 after subtracting 0 from 48.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 48, then carry on: 486 / 344

Going ahead to step 3:
486 divided by 344 is 1 with a remainder of 142.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 344 from 486 and we're left with 142.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 142 and repeat the process: 1429 / 344

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 1429 by 344, we get 4 and a remainder of 53.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 1376 from 1429 leaves us with 53.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 53 and continue: 531 / 344

Going ahead to step 5:
344 can be fit into 531 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 187.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141.0
The remainder is 187 after subtracting 344 from 531.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 187, then repeat: 1873 / 344

Step 6:
344 goes into 1873 5 times with a remainder of 153.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1415.0
Subtract 1720 from 1873 to get 153.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 153 and continue: 1537 / 344

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 344 fits into 1537 4 times, leaving a remainder of 161.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14154.0
If we take 1376 away from 1537, we end up with 161.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 161, then repeat: 1618 / 344

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 1618 by 344, we get 4 with a remainder of 242.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 141544.0
The remainder is 242 after subtracting 1376 from 1618.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
344 goes into 2420 7 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 141544.7
Deduct 2408 from 2420 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
344 goes into 120 0 times with a remainder of 120.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141544.7
The remainder is 120 after subtracting 0 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

Step 11:
344 goes into 1200 3 times with a remainder of 168.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 141544.703
The remainder is 168 after subtracting 1032 from 1200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Step 12:
1680 divided by 344 is 4 with a remainder of 304.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141544.7034
Subtract 1376 from 1680 to get 304.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3040, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 3040 by 344, we get 8 and a remainder of 288.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 141544.70348
If we subtract 2752 from 3040, we get 288.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2880, and continue the process.

Step 14:
2880 divided by 344 is 8 with a remainder of 128.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 141544.703488
Subtract 2752 from 2880 to get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

The final result is 141544.703488 with a remainder of 1.28e-05.
