We divide 185993 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 185993 can be divided by 48.

Step 1:
The number 48 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
48 can be fit into 18 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 185 / 48

On to step 3:
48 goes into 185 3 times with a remainder of 41.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 144 away from 185, we end up with 41.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 419 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
48 goes into 419 8 times with a remainder of 35.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 38.0
If we subtract 384 from 419, we get 35.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 359 / 48

On to step 5:
When dividing 359 by 48, we get 7 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 387.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 336 from 359.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 233 / 48

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 233 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 41.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3874.0
If we take 192 away from 233, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 410 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3874.8
Subtract 384 from 410 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
If we divide 260 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3874.85
If we take 240 away from 260, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
48 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3874.854
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 192 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
80 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3874.8541
If we subtract 48 from 80, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3874.85416
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 320 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 32.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3874.854166
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 288 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3874.854166 and a remainder of 3.2e-06.
