We divide 12730597 by 472
We want to divide 12730597 by 472.

Step 1:
The number 472 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 472

Advancing to step 2:
The number 472 fits into 12 0 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 12 leaves us with 12.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 127 / 472

Going ahead to step 3:
127 divided by 472 is 0 with a remainder of 127.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 127, we end up with 127.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 127, then repeat: 1273 / 472

On to step 4:
If we divide 1273 by 472, we get 2 and a remainder of 329.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 944 from 1273 to get 329.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 329 and continue with: 3290 / 472

Going ahead to step 5:
472 goes into 3290 6 times with a remainder of 458.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 2832 from 3290 leaves us with 458.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 458, then carry on: 4585 / 472

Step 6:
472 can be fit into 4585 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 337.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 269.0
If we take 4248 away from 4585, we end up with 337.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 337, then repeat: 3379 / 472

Let's proceed to step 7:
472 goes into 3379 7 times with a remainder of 75.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2697.0
If we take 3304 away from 3379, we end up with 75.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 75 and continue with: 757 / 472

On to step 8:
472 goes into 757 1 times with a remainder of 285.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 26971.0
If we take 472 away from 757, we end up with 285.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2850, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
2850 divided by 472 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26971.6
If we subtract 2832 from 2850, we 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
472 can be fit into 180 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 180.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 26971.6
The remainder is 180 after subtracting 0 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
472 can be fit into 1800 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 384.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 26971.603
Deduct 1416 from 1800 and we're left with 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 472 fits into 3840 8 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26971.6038
Deduct 3776 from 3840 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Step 13:
When dividing 640 by 472, we get 1 with a remainder of 168.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26971.60381
If we subtract 472 from 640, we get 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 1680 by 472, we get 3 and a remainder of 264.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26971.603813
Subtract 1416 from 1680 to get 264.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2640, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
When dividing 2640 by 472, we get 5 with a remainder of 280.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26971.6038135
Subtracting 2360 from 2640 leaves us with 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
472 can be fit into 2800 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 440.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 26971.60381355
Subtract 2360 from 2800 to get 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4400, and continue the process.

Our division results in 26971.60381355 with a remaining 4.4e-07.
