Let's divide 312374 by 48
We want to divide 312374 by 48.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 3 by 48, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 31 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
31 divided by 48 is 0 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 31 and we're left with 31.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 312 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 312 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 288 away from 312, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 243 / 48

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 243 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 65.0
Deduct 240 from 243 and we're left with 3.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 37 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 37 0 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 650.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 0 from 37.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 37, then repeat: 374 / 48

On to step 6:
48 goes into 374 7 times with a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6507.0
Deduct 336 from 374 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 380 7 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6507.7
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 336 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
48 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6507.79
Subtract 432 from 440 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6507.791
Subtracting 48 from 80 leaves us with 32.
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 10:
320 divided by 48 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6507.7916
Subtracting 288 from 320 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 48 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6507.79166
Deduct 288 from 320 and we're left with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Our division results in 6507.79166 with a remaining 3.2e-05.
