Let's divide 47742956 by 252
We want to figure out the number of times 47742956 can be divided by 252.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 252, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 252

Step 2:
252 can be fit into 47 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 47.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 47 and continue: 477 / 252

On to step 3:
The number 252 fits into 477 1 times, leaving a remainder of 225.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 252 from 477 to get 225.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 225, then carry on: 2254 / 252

Let's proceed to step 4:
2254 divided by 252 is 8 with a remainder of 238.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we subtract 2016 from 2254, we get 238.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 238 and continue: 2382 / 252

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 2382 by 252, we get 9 with a remainder of 114.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 189.0
The remainder is 114 after subtracting 2268 from 2382.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 114 and repeat the process: 1149 / 252

On to step 6:
252 goes into 1149 4 times with a remainder of 141.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1894.0
The remainder is 141 after subtracting 1008 from 1149.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 141, then repeat: 1415 / 252

Step 7:
The number 252 fits into 1415 5 times, leaving a remainder of 155.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18945.0
If we take 1260 away from 1415, we end up with 155.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 155 and continue: 1556 / 252

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 1556 by 252, we get 6 with a remainder of 44.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 189456.0
If we subtract 1512 from 1556, we get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
252 can be fit into 440 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 188.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 189456.1
Subtract 252 from 440 to get 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 1880 by 252, we get 7 and a remainder of 116.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 189456.17
If we take 1764 away from 1880, we end up with 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 1160 by 252, we get 4 with a remainder of 152.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 189456.174
Deduct 1008 from 1160 and we're left with 152.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1520, and continue the process.

Step 12:
252 goes into 1520 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 189456.1746
If we take 1512 away from 1520, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 13:
252 goes into 80 0 times with a remainder of 80.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 189456.1746
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 252 fits into 800 3 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 189456.174603
If we take 756 away from 800, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
252 goes into 440 1 times with a remainder of 188.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 189456.1746031
If we take 252 away from 440, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
When dividing 1880 by 252, we get 7 with a remainder of 116.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 189456.17460317
Subtract 1764 from 1880 to get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 189456.17460317 and a remainder of 1.16e-07.
