We look at the division of 462 by 47 
We want to divide 462 by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
4 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 46 / 47

On to step 2:
If we divide 46 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 46.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 462 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 462 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 423 from 462.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 4:
47 goes into 390 8 times with a remainder of 14.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.8
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 376 from 390.
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 5:
140 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.82
Subtracting 94 from 140 leaves us with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
47 goes into 460 9 times with a remainder of 37.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.829
If we take 423 away from 460, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
370 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 9.8297
Subtract 329 from 370 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
47 can be fit into 410 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9.82978
Deduct 376 from 410 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 47 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.829787
Deduct 329 from 340 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
47 can be fit into 110 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.8297872
If we subtract 94 from 110, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 160 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9.82978723
Subtracting 141 from 160 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 9.82978723 and a remainder of 1.9e-08.
