870886 ÷ 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 870886.

Step 1:
If we divide 8 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 87 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 87 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 47 away from 87, we end up with 40.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 400 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 400 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 376 from 400 to get 24.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 24 and repeat the process: 248 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 248 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 185.0
If we take 235 away from 248, we end up with 13.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 138 / 47

Step 5:
If we divide 138 by 47, we get 2 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1852.0
Deduct 94 from 138 and we're left with 44.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 44, then carry on: 446 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
47 goes into 446 9 times with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18529.0
Subtract 423 from 446 to get 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
47 can be fit into 230 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18529.4
If we subtract 188 from 230, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
420 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18529.48
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 376 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 47 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18529.489
Subtracting 423 from 440 leaves us 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.

Step 10:
The number 47 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18529.4893
Subtract 141 from 170 to 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.

On to step 11:
47 can be fit into 290 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18529.48936
If we take 282 away from 290, we end up 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 12:
80 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18529.489361
If we take 47 away from 80, we end up with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 330 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18529.4893617
Deduct 329 from 330 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
10 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18529.4893617
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 18529.4893617, with a leftover of 1e-08.
