21611 ÷ 47 
We want to divide 21611 by 47.

On to step 1:
47 can be fit into 2 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 47

Step 2:
47 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 21, we get 21.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 216 / 47

On to step 3:
216 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 188 from 216 leaves us with 28.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 281 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
47 goes into 281 5 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 45.0
If we take 235 away from 281, we end up with 46.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 461 / 47

On to step 5:
If we divide 461 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 459.0
Subtracting 423 from 461 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.

On to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 459.8
If we subtract 376 from 380, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 40 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 459.8
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
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: 459.808
Subtracting 376 from 400 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 9:
47 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 459.8085
If we subtract 235 from 240, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Step 10:
47 goes into 50 1 times with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 459.80851
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 47 from 50.
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 11:
If we divide 30 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 459.80851
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
If we divide 300 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 459.8085106
Subtracting 282 from 300 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 459.80851063
Subtracting 141 from 180 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 459.80851063 with a remaining 3.9e-08.
