47840 divided by 2 
Let's see how many times 2 fits into 47840.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 2, we get 2 and a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 7 / 2

Going ahead to step 2:
7 divided by 2 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 23.0
Subtract 6 from 7 to get 1.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 2

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 18 by 2, we get 9 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 239.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 18 from 18.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 2

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 4 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2392.0
Subtract 4 from 4 to get 0.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 0 / 2

Step 5:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 23920.0
Subtracting 0 from 0 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
2 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23920.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 2, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23920.0
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 23920.0, with a leftover of 0.0.
