We're dividing 5717579 by 473 
We want to figure out the number of times 5717579 can be divided by 473.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 473, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 57 / 473

On to step 2:
473 goes into 57 0 times with a remainder of 57.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 57 to get 57.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 57, then carry on: 571 / 473

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 571 by 473, we get 1 with a remainder of 98.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 473 from 571 to get 98.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 98 and continue: 987 / 473

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 987 by 473, we get 2 and a remainder of 41.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 946 from 987 and we're left with 41.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 415 / 473

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 415 by 473, we get 0 with a remainder of 415.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 120.0
Subtract 0 from 415 to get 415.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 415, then repeat: 4157 / 473

Advancing to step 6:
4157 divided by 473 is 8 with a remainder of 373.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1208.0
Subtract 3784 from 4157 to get 373.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 373, then repeat: 3739 / 473

Step 7:
The number 473 fits into 3739 7 times, leaving a remainder of 428.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.0
Subtract 3311 from 3739 to get 428.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4280, and continue the process.

Step 8:
473 can be fit into 4280 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12087.9
Deduct 4257 from 4280 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 230 by 473, we get 0 and a remainder of 230.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.9
Deduct 0 from 230 and we're left with 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 2300 by 473, we get 4 and a remainder of 408.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12087.904
Deduct 1892 from 2300 and we're left with 408.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4080, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
473 goes into 4080 8 times with a remainder of 296.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12087.9048
If we subtract 3784 from 4080, we get 296.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2960, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
473 can be fit into 2960 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 122.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.90486
If we take 2838 away from 2960, we end up with 122.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
1220 divided by 473 is 2 with a remainder of 274.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.904862
Subtracting 946 from 1220 leaves us with 274.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2740, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 2740 by 473, we get 5 with a remainder of 375.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.9048625
If we take 2365 away from 2740, we end up with 375.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3750, and continue the process.

On to step 15:
The number 473 fits into 3750 7 times, leaving a remainder of 439.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12087.90486257
Subtracting 3311 from 3750 leaves us with 439.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4390, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12087.90486257 with a remaining 4.39e-07.
