212423 ÷ 47 
We want to figure out the number of times 212423 can be divided by 47.

Step 1:
2 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 21 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 21 and repeat the process: 212 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
212 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 24.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 188 away from 212, we end up with 24.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 244 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 244 5 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 45.0
Subtract 235 from 244 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 92 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 92 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 45.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 451.0
Subtract 47 from 92 to get 45.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 453 / 47

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 453 9 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4519.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 423 from 453.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 7:
47 goes into 300 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4519.6
Subtracting 282 from 300 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 180 by 47, we get 3 and a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4519.63
Subtract 141 from 180 to get 39.
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 9:
47 goes into 390 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4519.638
Subtract 376 from 390 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 10:
When dividing 140 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 4519.6382
Subtract 94 from 140 to get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
47 goes into 460 9 times with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4519.63829
If we subtract 423 from 460, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
47 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 41.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4519.638297
If we subtract 329 from 370, we 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4519.6382978
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 376 from 410.
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 14:
47 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4519.63829787
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 329 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 4519.63829787 with a balance of 1.1e-08.
