117849 divided by 48 
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 117849.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 1 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 can be fit into 11 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 48

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 117 by 48, we get 2 and a remainder of 21.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 96 from 117, we get 21.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 218 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 218 4 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24.0
If we take 192 away from 218, we end up with 26.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 264 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
264 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 24.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 245.0
Subtracting 240 from 264 leaves us with 24.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 249 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
The number 48 fits into 249 5 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2455.0
If we subtract 240 from 249, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2455.1
Subtract 48 from 90 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
48 can be fit into 420 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2455.18
Subtract 384 from 420 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 360 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2455.187
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 336 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
240 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 2455.1875
Subtracting 240 from 240 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2455.1875
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 0 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2455.1875
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2455.1875, with a leftover of 0.0.
