Let's divide 284957 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 284957.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 28 / 47

Moving on to step 2:
28 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 28 leaves us with 28.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 284 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
47 goes into 284 6 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Deduct 282 from 284 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 29 / 47

Step 4:
47 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 60.0
If we take 0 away from 29, we end up with 29.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 29 and continue: 295 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 295 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 606.0
Deduct 282 from 295 and we're left with 13.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 137 / 47

Step 6:
137 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6062.0
Deduct 94 from 137 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Step 7:
430 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6062.9
Deduct 423 from 430 and we're left with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6062.91
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 47 from 70.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 230 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6062.914
Deduct 188 from 230 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
420 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6062.9148
Subtract 376 from 420 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
47 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6062.91489
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.

Advancing to step 12:
47 can be fit into 170 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6062.914893
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 141 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
47 goes into 290 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6062.9148936
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.

Advancing to step 14:
If we divide 80 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6062.91489361
If we take 47 away from 80, we end up 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.

After the division, we end up with 6062.91489361 and a remainder of 3.3e-08.
