We're dividing 473897 by 43 
Let's see how many times 43 fits into 473897.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 43, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 43

Moving on to step 2:
43 can be fit into 47 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 43 from 47 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 43

Step 3:
The number 43 fits into 43 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 43 from 43.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 8 / 43

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 8 by 43, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 110.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 89 / 43

Step 5:
The number 43 fits into 89 2 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1102.0
Subtracting 86 from 89 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 43

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 37 by 43, we get 0 and a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11020.0
Deduct 0 from 37 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 43 fits into 370 8 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11020.8
If we subtract 344 from 370, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
260 divided by 43 is 6 with a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11020.86
If we subtract 258 from 260, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 43 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11020.86
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 200 by 43, we get 4 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11020.8604
If we subtract 172 from 200, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 280 by 43, we get 6 and a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11020.86046
If we take 258 away from 280, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 220 by 43, we get 5 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11020.860465
If we subtract 215 from 220, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
50 divided by 43 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11020.8604651
Deduct 43 from 50 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 70 by 43, we get 1 with a remainder of 27.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11020.86046511
If we subtract 43 from 70, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 11020.86046511 and a remainder of 2.7e-08.
