We look at the division of 470142 by 89 
We want to divide 470142 by 89.

Step 1:
4 divided by 89 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 89

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 89, we get 0 with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 470 / 89

Advancing to step 3:
470 divided by 89 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 445 from 470 leaves us with 25.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 251 / 89

On to step 4:
89 can be fit into 251 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 73.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 52.0
The remainder is 73 after subtracting 178 from 251.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 73 and continue: 734 / 89

Moving on to step 5:
The number 89 fits into 734 8 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 528.0
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 712 from 734.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 22 and continue with: 222 / 89

Step 6:
The number 89 fits into 222 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5282.0
If we subtract 178 from 222, 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 7:
If we divide 440 by 89, we get 4 and a remainder of 84.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5282.4
If we subtract 356 from 440, we get 84.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 840, and continue the process.

Step 8:
89 can be fit into 840 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5282.49
If we take 801 away from 840, we end up with 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:
When dividing 390 by 89, we get 4 with a remainder of 34.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5282.494
If we subtract 356 from 390, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 340 by 89, we get 3 and a remainder of 73.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5282.4943
Subtracting 267 from 340 leaves us with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
89 can be fit into 730 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5282.49438
Subtract 712 from 730 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 180 by 89, we get 2 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5282.494382
If we take 178 away from 180, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 13:
20 divided by 89 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5282.494382
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
200 divided by 89 is 2 with a remainder of 22.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5282.49438202
Subtracting 178 from 200 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 5282.49438202 with a balance of 2.2e-08.
