We divide 687129 by 47
Our goal is to divide 687129 by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
47 can be fit into 6 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 6, we get 6.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 68 / 47

On to step 2:
When dividing 68 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 47 from 68 leaves us with 21.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 21 and continue with: 217 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
217 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 29.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 188 from 217 leaves us with 29.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 291 / 47

On to step 4:
47 can be fit into 291 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 146.0
Subtract 282 from 291 to get 9.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 92 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 92 1 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1461.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 47 from 92.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 459 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
47 goes into 459 9 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14619.0
Subtract 423 from 459 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 7:
47 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14619.7
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.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 310 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14619.76
Subtract 282 from 310 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 280 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14619.765
Subtracting 235 from 280 leaves us with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 47 fits into 450 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14619.7659
If we subtract 423 from 450, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
47 goes into 270 5 times with a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 14619.76595
Subtracting 235 from 270 leaves us 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.

On to step 12:
350 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14619.765957
If we take 329 away from 350, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 210 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14619.7659574
If we subtract 188 from 210, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 220 by 47, we get 4 with a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14619.76595744
Subtracting 188 from 220 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 14619.76595744 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
