Let's divide 401523 by 47
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 401523.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 47

Step 2:
The number 47 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 401 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
47 goes into 401 8 times with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Deduct 376 from 401 and we're left with 25.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 25, then repeat: 255 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 255 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 85.0
If we subtract 235 from 255, we get 20.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 20 and continue: 202 / 47

On to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 202 4 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 854.0
If we take 188 away from 202, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 143 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 143 by 47, we get 3 and a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8543.0
If we take 141 away from 143, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
20 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8543.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 47, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8543.04
Deduct 188 from 200 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
47 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8543.042
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 94 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
260 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 8543.0425
Deduct 235 from 260 and we're left with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
250 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8543.04255
If we take 235 away from 250, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 8543.04255, and the remainder is 1.5e-05.
