Let's divide 318737 by 47
We want to figure out the number of times 318737 can be divided by 47.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 47

On to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 31 0 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 318 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 318 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
If we take 282 away from 318, we end up with 36.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 367 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
47 goes into 367 7 times with a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 67.0
If we subtract 329 from 367, we get 38.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 38, then repeat: 383 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 383 8 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 678.0
If we subtract 376 from 383, we get 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 47

Step 6:
47 can be fit into 77 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 6781.0
If we take 47 away from 77, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
47 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6781.6
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 282 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
47 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6781.63
If we subtract 141 from 180, we get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
47 goes into 390 8 times with a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6781.638
Deduct 376 from 390 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
47 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6781.6382
If we subtract 94 from 140, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 460 9 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6781.63829
Subtracting 423 from 460 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
47 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6781.638297
If we subtract 329 from 370, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
410 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6781.6382978
If we take 376 away from 410, we end up with 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 14:
340 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6781.63829787
If we take 329 away from 340, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

The final result is 6781.63829787 with a remainder of 1.1e-08.
