I want to divide 483 by 48 till a remainder is left. Now I dont know the exact process. I dont understand why the quotient is 10 and remainder is 3 and not 1 and 3. Kindly tell me the exact procedure for division.

Answer :

First we check that 48 can divide first two digit of 483 , As :

Now we can see that 48 - 48 = 0 , and then we bring 3 down but we can't divide 3 by 48 so we add a zero in our quotient , So our quotient = 10 and remainder  = 3
