Let's divide 185046 by 47
We want to figure out the number of times 185046 can be divided by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 18 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 18 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 185 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 185 by 47, we get 3 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 141 from 185 to get 44.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 440 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
440 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we take 423 away from 440, we end up with 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 47

Going ahead to step 5:
47 can be fit into 174 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 393.0
Subtracting 141 from 174 leaves us with 33.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 33, then carry on: 336 / 47

On to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 336 7 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3937.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 329 from 336.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
47 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3937.1
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 47 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 230 by 47, we get 4 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3937.14
If we take 188 away from 230, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 3937.148
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 376 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 440 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3937.1489
Subtract 423 from 440 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
47 goes into 170 3 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3937.14893
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 141 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
290 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3937.148936
If we subtract 282 from 290, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
80 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3937.1489361
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 47 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 330 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3937.14893617
Subtract 329 from 330 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3937.14893617 and a remainder of 1e-09.
