Let's divide 472762 by 21
We're looking to find how many times 21 goes into 472762.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 21 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.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 47 / 21

Step 2:
When dividing 47 by 21, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 42 from 47 leaves us with 5.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 52 / 21

Moving on to step 3:
21 can be fit into 52 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 42 from 52.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 10 and continue with: 107 / 21

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 107 by 21, we get 5 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 225.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 105 from 107.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 26 / 21

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 26 by 21, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2251.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 21 from 26.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 21

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 52 by 21, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22512.0
If we subtract 42 from 52, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
21 goes into 100 4 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22512.4
Deduct 84 from 100 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.

Advancing to step 8:
160 divided by 21 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22512.47
If we take 147 away from 160, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 21 fits into 130 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 22512.476
If we subtract 126 from 130, 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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 21, we get 1 with a remainder of 19.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22512.4761
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 21 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 190 by 21, we get 9 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22512.47619
Deduct 189 from 190 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 21 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 22512.47619
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
21 can be fit into 100 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 22512.4761904
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 84 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 160 by 21, we get 7 with a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 22512.47619047
Subtracting 147 from 160 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Our division results in 22512.47619047 with a remaining 1.3e-08.
