Let's divide 511721 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 511721.

Step 1:
The number 47 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 goes into 51 1 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 47 from 51.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
47 goes into 41 0 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 41 to get 41.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 417 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
47 goes into 417 8 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 108.0
Subtract 376 from 417 to get 41.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 412 / 47

On to step 5:
47 can be fit into 412 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1088.0
If we take 376 away from 412, we end up with 36.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 361 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 361 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10887.0
If we subtract 329 from 361, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 320 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10887.6
If we take 282 away from 320, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10887.68
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 376 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10887.68
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
400 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 10887.6808
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 376 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
47 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10887.68085
Subtract 235 from 240 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
47 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10887.680851
Subtracting 47 from 50 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 47 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10887.680851
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
300 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10887.68085106
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.

The final outcome is 10887.68085106, with a leftover of 1.8e-08.
