We look at the division of 230811 by 47 
Our goal is to divide 230811 by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 23 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 23 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 230 / 47

On to step 3:
47 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 188 from 230.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 428 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 428 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 49.0
If we take 423 away from 428, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 51 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 491.0
If we take 47 away from 51, we end up with 4.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 41 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4910.0
Subtracting 0 from 41 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 410 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 34.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4910.8
If we subtract 376 from 410, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 340 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4910.87
Subtract 329 from 340 to get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 47 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4910.872
Subtract 94 from 110 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
47 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4910.8723
Deduct 141 from 160 and we're left with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4910.87234
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 188 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4910.87234
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4910.8723404
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
47 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4910.87234042
Subtract 94 from 120 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4910.87234042 and a remainder of 2.6e-08.
