We divide 728947 by 47
Our goal is to divide 728947 by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
47 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 72 / 47

Moving on to step 2:
47 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 47 from 72 leaves us with 25.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 258 / 47

Step 3:
258 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 23.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 235 from 258, we get 23.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 239 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 239 5 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 235 away from 239, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 47

Going ahead to step 5:
47 can be fit into 44 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1550.0
If we subtract 0 from 44, we get 44.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 447 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
47 goes into 447 9 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15509.0
Subtract 423 from 447 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
47 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15509.5
If we subtract 235 from 240, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
50 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15509.51
If we take 47 away from 50, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 9:
47 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15509.51
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
300 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 15509.5106
Deduct 282 from 300 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 180 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 39.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15509.51063
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 12:
47 can be fit into 390 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15509.510638
If we subtract 376 from 390, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
47 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15509.5106382
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.

Advancing to step 14:
460 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15509.51063829
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 423 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15509.51063829 with a remaining 3.7e-08.
