Let's divide 143737 by 48
We're looking to find how many times 48 goes into 143737.

Going ahead to step 1:
48 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 14 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 14.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 14, we end up with 14.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 143 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
143 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 96 from 143, we get 47.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 47, then carry on: 477 / 48

Let's proceed to step 4:
477 divided by 48 is 9 with a remainder of 45.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Deduct 432 from 477 and we're left with 45.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 453 / 48

Step 5:
If we divide 453 by 48, we get 9 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 299.0
If we subtract 432 from 453, we get 21.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 217 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
217 divided by 48 is 4 with a remainder of 25.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2994.0
Subtract 192 from 217 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2994.5
If we subtract 240 from 250, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
100 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2994.52
If we subtract 96 from 100, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 48 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2994.52
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 48 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2994.5208
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 384 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2994.52083
Deduct 144 from 160 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
160 divided by 48 is 3 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2994.520833
Subtract 144 from 160 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 2994.520833 with a remainder of 1.6e-06.
