We divide 724576 by 48
We want to figure out the number of times 724576 can be divided by 48.

On to step 1:
48 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 48

Step 2:
If we divide 72 by 48, we get 1 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 48 from 72 to get 24.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 244 / 48

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 244 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 240 from 244.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 45 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 45 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 150.0
If we subtract 0 from 45, we get 45.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 457 / 48

Let's proceed to step 5:
48 goes into 457 9 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1509.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 432 from 457.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 256 / 48

On to step 6:
48 can be fit into 256 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15095.0
If we take 240 away from 256, 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 7:
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: 15095.3
Subtracting 144 from 160 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15095.33
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 144 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 15095.33 and a remainder of 0.016.
