878151 divided by 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 878151.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 87 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 47 from 87.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 408 / 47

Step 3:
408 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 376 from 408 to get 32.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 32, then repeat: 321 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 321 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 39.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 186.0
If we take 282 away from 321, we end up with 39.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 395 / 47

Moving on to step 5:
395 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 19.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1868.0
Deduct 376 from 395 and we're left with 19.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 191 / 47

On to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 191 4 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18684.0
If we subtract 188 from 191, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
30 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18684.0
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18684.06
Subtract 282 from 300 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 9:
180 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 39.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18684.063
If we take 141 away from 180, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 390 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18684.0638
If we subtract 376 from 390, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 140 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18684.06382
If we subtract 94 from 140, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 47 fits into 460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18684.063829
If we take 423 away from 460, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 370 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18684.0638297
If we take 329 away from 370, we end up with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18684.06382978
Deduct 376 from 410 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Our division results in 18684.06382978 with a remaining 3.4e-08.
