Let's divide 487147 by 9
We want to figure out the number of times 487147 can be divided by 9.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 9 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 48 / 9

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 48 by 9, we get 5 with a remainder of 3.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we subtract 45 from 48, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 37 / 9

Moving on to step 3:
37 divided by 9 is 4 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 54.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 36 from 37.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 9

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 11 by 9, we get 1 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 541.0
Subtracting 9 from 11 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 24 / 9

On to step 5:
When dividing 24 by 9, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5412.0
Deduct 18 from 24 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 9

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 67 by 9, we get 7 and a remainder of 4.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 54127.0
Subtract 63 from 67 to 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.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 40 by 9, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 54127.4
Subtracting 36 from 40 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 8:
9 goes into 40 4 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 54127.44
Deduct 36 from 40 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Our division results in 54127.44 with a remaining 0.004.
