We're dividing 48747 by 17 
Our goal is to divide 48747 by 17.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 17, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 48 / 17

Moving on to step 2:
17 can be fit into 48 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 34 from 48.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 147 / 17

Advancing to step 3:
The number 17 fits into 147 8 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 28.0
If we subtract 136 from 147, we get 11.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 114 / 17

On to step 4:
17 can be fit into 114 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 286.0
Subtract 102 from 114 to get 12.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 127 / 17

Advancing to step 5:
The number 17 fits into 127 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2867.0
Deduct 119 from 127 and we're left with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 80 by 17, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2867.4
Subtracting 68 from 80 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
17 goes into 120 7 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 2867.47
If we subtract 119 from 120, 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.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 10 by 17, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2867.47
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
17 can be fit into 100 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2867.4705
Subtract 85 from 100 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 150 by 17, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2867.47058
Subtract 136 from 150 to 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.

On to step 11:
17 can be fit into 140 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 2867.470588
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 136 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 2867.470588 with a remainder of 4e-07.
