We divide 378957 by 47
We want to divide 378957 by 47.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 3, we get 3.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 37 / 47

Moving on to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 37 0 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 37, we end up with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 47

Step 3:
378 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 2.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8.0
If we subtract 376 from 378, we get 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
47 goes into 29 0 times with a remainder of 29.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 80.0
If we subtract 0 from 29, we get 29.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 295 / 47

Going ahead to step 5:
47 can be fit into 295 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 806.0
Subtract 282 from 295 to get 13.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 137 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 137 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 43.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8062.0
Subtract 94 from 137 to get 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 430 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 7.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8062.9
Subtract 423 from 430 to get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
70 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8062.91
Deduct 47 from 70 and we're left with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
230 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8062.914
If we take 188 away from 230, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 10:
47 goes into 420 8 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8062.9148
If we take 376 away from 420, we end up with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
440 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8062.91489
If we take 423 away from 440, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 170 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 29.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8062.914893
If we subtract 141 from 170, we get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
47 can be fit into 290 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8062.9148936
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.

On to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8062.91489361
If we subtract 47 from 80, we get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 8062.91489361, with a leftover of 3.3e-08.
