We look at the division of 259745 by 47 
Our goal is to divide 259745 by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 47

Step 2:
47 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 0 from 25.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 259 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
259 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 235 from 259 to get 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 47

On to step 4:
If we divide 247 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 12.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 235 from 247, we get 12.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 124 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 124 2 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 552.0
Subtracting 94 from 124 leaves us with 30.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 30, then carry on: 305 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
47 goes into 305 6 times with a remainder of 23.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5526.0
Subtract 282 from 305 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 47 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5526.4
Subtracting 188 from 230 leaves us with 42.
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:
When dividing 420 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5526.48
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 376 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 9:
47 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5526.489
Deduct 423 from 440 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5526.4893
If we subtract 141 from 170, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 290 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5526.48936
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 282 from 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
47 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5526.489361
Subtracting 47 from 80 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 330 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5526.4893617
If we subtract 329 from 330, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5526.4893617
Subtract 0 from 10 to 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.

The final outcome is 5526.4893617, with a leftover of 1e-08.
