Let's divide 491286 by 48
The aim is to understand the frequency of 48 in 491286.

Step 1:
The number 48 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 49 / 48

Advancing to step 2:
49 divided by 48 is 1 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 48 from 49.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 11 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 11.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 112 / 48

Step 4:
112 divided by 48 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 102.0
Deduct 96 from 112 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 48

Advancing to step 5:
48 can be fit into 168 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1023.0
If we take 144 away from 168, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 246 / 48

On to step 6:
When dividing 246 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 6.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10235.0
Subtract 240 from 246 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
48 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10235.1
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 48 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 120 by 48, we get 2 with a remainder of 24.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10235.12
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 96 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10235.125
If we take 240 away from 240, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 0 by 48, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10235.125
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
48 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10235.125
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10235.125 with a remaining 0.0.
