We're dividing 19974798 by 472 
Our goal is to divide 19974798 by 472.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 472, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 19 / 472

Step 2:
472 goes into 19 0 times with a remainder of 19.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 19 to get 19.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 199 / 472

Step 3:
472 can be fit into 199 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 199.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 199, we end up with 199.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 199, then carry on: 1997 / 472

Step 4:
472 can be fit into 1997 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 109.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 1888 from 1997 to get 109.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 109 and repeat the process: 1094 / 472

Step 5:
The number 472 fits into 1094 2 times, leaving a remainder of 150.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtract 944 from 1094 to get 150.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 150 and continue: 1507 / 472

Step 6:
The number 472 fits into 1507 3 times, leaving a remainder of 91.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 423.0
If we take 1416 away from 1507, we end up with 91.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 91, then repeat: 919 / 472

Moving on to step 7:
919 divided by 472 is 1 with a remainder of 447.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4231.0
If we subtract 472 from 919, we get 447.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 447, then carry on: 4478 / 472

On to step 8:
472 can be fit into 4478 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 230.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42319.0
If we take 4248 away from 4478, we end up with 230.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
When dividing 2300 by 472, we get 4 with a remainder of 412.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42319.4
Subtract 1888 from 2300 to get 412.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
4120 divided by 472 is 8 with a remainder of 344.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 42319.48
The remainder is 344 after subtracting 3776 from 4120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 3440 by 472, we get 7 with a remainder of 136.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42319.487
If we subtract 3304 from 3440, we get 136.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1360, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
If we divide 1360 by 472, we get 2 and a remainder of 416.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42319.4872
Subtracting 944 from 1360 leaves us with 416.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
472 goes into 4160 8 times with a remainder of 384.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42319.48728
Subtract 3776 from 4160 to get 384.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3840, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
3840 divided by 472 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42319.487288
Subtract 3776 from 3840 to get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 42319.487288 with a balance of 6.4e-06.
