237873 divided by 48 
We want to divide 237873 by 48.

Step 1:
48 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 23 / 48

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 48 fits into 23 0 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 23, we get 23.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 237 / 48

Let's proceed to step 3:
48 goes into 237 4 times with a remainder of 45.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 192 from 237.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 458 / 48

Advancing to step 4:
The number 48 fits into 458 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 49.0
Subtracting 432 from 458 leaves us with 26.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 26, then repeat: 267 / 48

Step 5:
If we divide 267 by 48, we get 5 and a remainder of 27.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 495.0
Deduct 240 from 267 and we're left with 27.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 273 / 48

Let's proceed to step 6:
48 can be fit into 273 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4955.0
Deduct 240 from 273 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 48 fits into 330 6 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4955.6
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 288 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 48 fits into 420 8 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4955.68
Subtract 384 from 420 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
360 divided by 48 is 7 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4955.687
Deduct 336 from 360 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 240 by 48, we get 5 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4955.6875
Deduct 240 from 240 and we're left 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 11:
48 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4955.6875
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 48 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4955.6875
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 4955.6875, and the remainder is 0.0.
