We look at the division of 55483 by 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 55483.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 47

Step 2:
If we divide 55 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 47 from 55 and we're left with 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 84 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 47 from 84 to get 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 378 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 118.0
If we take 376 away from 378, we end up with 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
47 goes into 23 0 times with a remainder of 23.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1180.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
47 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1180.4
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.

Moving on to step 7:
420 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1180.48
If we subtract 376 from 420, 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.

Step 8:
The number 47 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1180.489
If we subtract 423 from 440, we 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 9:
The number 47 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1180.4893
Subtracting 141 from 170 leaves us with 29.
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 10:
290 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1180.48936
Subtracting 282 from 290 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 80 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1180.489361
Deduct 47 from 80 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 12:
47 can be fit into 330 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1180.4893617
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 329 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
47 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1180.4893617
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 1180.4893617, and the remainder is 1e-08.
