49742 ÷ 47 
Our goal is to divide 49742 by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 49 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 49 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 47 from 49.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 27 / 47

Step 3:
27 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 27.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 27 leaves us with 27.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 27, then repeat: 274 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
47 goes into 274 5 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 105.0
If we take 235 away from 274, we end up with 39.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 392 / 47

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 392 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1058.0
Deduct 376 from 392 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
160 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1058.3
Deduct 141 from 160 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 190 by 47, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1058.34
If we subtract 188 from 190, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
47 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1058.34
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 200 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1058.3404
If we take 188 away from 200, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 47, we get 2 and a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1058.34042
Deduct 94 from 120 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
47 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1058.340425
Subtract 235 from 260 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
250 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1058.3404255
Subtracting 235 from 250 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The final result is 1058.3404255 with a remainder of 1.5e-07.
