We're dividing 208505 by 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 208505.

Moving on 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
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 20 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
47 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 208 / 47

Step 3:
208 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 188 from 208 leaves us with 20.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 205 / 47

Step 4:
If we divide 205 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 44.0
If we take 188 away from 205, we end up with 17.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 170 / 47

Moving on to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 443.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 141 from 170.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 295 / 47

On to step 6:
If we divide 295 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 13.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4436.0
Deduct 282 from 295 and we're left with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 130 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4436.2
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 94 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
47 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4436.27
Deduct 329 from 360 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
47 goes into 310 6 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4436.276
Subtracting 282 from 310 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 4436.2765
Subtract 235 from 280 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
47 goes into 450 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4436.27659
Deduct 423 from 450 and we're left with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 270 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 35.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4436.276595
Deduct 235 from 270 and we're left with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 350 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4436.2765957
Subtracting 329 from 350 leaves us with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
47 can be fit into 210 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4436.27659574
Subtract 188 from 210 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4436.27659574 with a remaining 2.2e-08.
