Let's divide 857783 by 47
We want to divide 857783 by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 85 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
85 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 38.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 85, we get 38.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 38, then carry on: 387 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 387 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 11.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 376 away from 387, we end up with 11.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 117 / 47

On to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 117 2 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 182.0
Subtract 94 from 117 to get 23.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 238 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
238 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1825.0
If we subtract 235 from 238, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 33 / 47

On to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 33 0 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18250.0
Deduct 0 from 33 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 7:
330 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18250.7
Subtract 329 from 330 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18250.7
If we subtract 0 from 10, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
47 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18250.702
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 94 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
60 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18250.7021
If we subtract 47 from 60, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
47 can be fit into 130 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18250.70212
Subtracting 94 from 130 leaves us with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 360 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18250.702127
Deduct 329 from 360 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 310 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 18250.7021276
Subtracting 282 from 310 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 280 5 times, leaving a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18250.70212765
Subtract 235 from 280 to get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 18250.70212765, and the remainder is 4.5e-08.
