We divide 6457 by 47
Our goal is to divide 6457 by 47.

On to step 1:
6 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 6 to get 6.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 64 / 47

Step 2:
The number 47 fits into 64 1 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 64, we get 17.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 175 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
47 goes into 175 3 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13.0
Subtract 141 from 175 to get 34.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 347 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
347 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 137.0
If we take 329 away from 347, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 5:
180 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 137.3
Subtract 141 from 180 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.

Moving on to step 6:
47 can be fit into 390 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 137.38
Subtract 376 from 390 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
47 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 137.382
If we subtract 94 from 140, we get 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
47 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 137.3829
Subtracting 423 from 460 leaves us with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
370 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 137.38297
If we subtract 329 from 370, we get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
47 can be fit into 410 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 137.382978
Deduct 376 from 410 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
340 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 137.3829787
Subtracting 329 from 340 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 47 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 137.38297872
Subtract 94 from 110 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 137.38297872 with a balance of 1.6e-08.
