Let's divide 874796 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 874796.

Step 1:
8 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 8 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 47

Step 2:
47 can be fit into 87 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 47 from 87 and we're left with 40.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 47 fits into 404 8 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 376 from 404.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 287 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
47 goes into 287 6 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 186.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 282 from 287.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 47

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 59 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1861.0
If we take 47 away from 59, we end up with 12.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 126 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
47 goes into 126 2 times with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 18612.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 94 from 126.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
47 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 38.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18612.6
Subtracting 282 from 320 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
47 can be fit into 380 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18612.68
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.

Step 9:
When dividing 40 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18612.68
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
47 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18612.6808
Deduct 376 from 400 and we're left with 24.
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:
The number 47 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18612.68085
Subtracting 235 from 240 leaves us with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 18612.680851
Deduct 47 from 50 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
47 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18612.680851
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 300 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18612.68085106
If we take 282 away from 300, we end up 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 result is 18612.68085106 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
