We look at the division of 721289 by 48 
We want to divide 721289 by 48.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 7 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 72 / 48

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 72 by 48, we get 1 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 48 away from 72, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 241 / 48

On to step 3:
The number 48 fits into 241 5 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we take 240 away from 241, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 12 / 48

Moving on to step 4:
48 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 150.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 128 / 48

Moving on to step 5:
The number 48 fits into 128 2 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1502.0
Deduct 96 from 128 and we're left with 32.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 329 / 48

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 329 by 48, we get 6 and a remainder of 41.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15026.0
If we take 288 away from 329, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 410 by 48, we get 8 with a remainder of 26.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15026.8
Subtracting 384 from 410 leaves us with 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:
260 divided by 48 is 5 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15026.85
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 240 from 260.
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:
When dividing 200 by 48, we get 4 with a remainder of 8.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15026.854
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:
48 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15026.8541
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
48 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15026.85416
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:
When dividing 320 by 48, we get 6 with a remainder of 32.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15026.854166
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 15026.854166 with a balance of 3.2e-06.
