987247 ÷ 49 
We're looking to find how many times 49 goes into 987247.

Step 1:
9 divided by 49 is 0 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 49

Advancing to step 2:
49 can be fit into 98 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 98 from 98 and we're left with 0.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 7 / 49

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 7 by 49, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we take 0 away from 7, we end up with 7.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 7, then repeat: 72 / 49

Advancing to step 4:
49 can be fit into 72 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 201.0
Deduct 49 from 72 and we're left with 23.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 23, then repeat: 234 / 49

On to step 5:
The number 49 fits into 234 4 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2014.0
If we subtract 196 from 234, we get 38.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 387 / 49

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 387 by 49, we get 7 with a remainder of 44.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20147.0
If we take 343 away from 387, 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.

Step 7:
49 can be fit into 440 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 48.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20147.8
If we take 392 away from 440, we end up with 48.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 480, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 480 by 49, we get 9 with a remainder of 39.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20147.89
Subtract 441 from 480 to 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 390 by 49, we get 7 with a remainder of 47.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20147.897
If we subtract 343 from 390, we get 47.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 470, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 49 fits into 470 9 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20147.8979
Deduct 441 from 470 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 290 by 49, we get 5 with a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20147.89795
Deduct 245 from 290 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
450 divided by 49 is 9 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20147.897959
Subtracting 441 from 450 leaves us with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 49 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 20147.8979591
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 49 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 410 by 49, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20147.89795918
Deduct 392 from 410 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.

The final result is 20147.89795918 with a remainder of 1.8e-08.
