Let's divide 592578 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 592578.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 59 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
59 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 12.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 47 from 59.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 122 / 47

Step 3:
122 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we take 94 away from 122, we end up with 28.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 28, then repeat: 285 / 47

On to step 4:
If we divide 285 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 3.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 126.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 282 from 285.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 37 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 37 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 37.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1260.0
Subtracting 0 from 37 leaves us with 37.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 378 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 378 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12608.0
Deduct 376 from 378 and we're left with 2.
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 7:
If we divide 20 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12608.0
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.

Advancing to step 8:
47 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12608.04
If we subtract 188 from 200, we get 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 9:
47 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12608.042
If we take 94 away from 120, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
47 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12608.0425
If we subtract 235 from 260, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 250 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12608.04255
Deduct 235 from 250 and we're left with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12608.04255 with a remaining 1.5e-05.
