Let's divide 247709 by 83
We're looking to find how many times 83 goes into 247709.

On to step 1:
The number 83 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 83

Advancing to step 2:
The number 83 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 247 / 83

Let's proceed to step 3:
247 divided by 83 is 2 with a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we subtract 166 from 247, we get 81.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 81, then repeat: 817 / 83

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 817 by 83, we get 9 with a remainder of 70.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29.0
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 747 from 817.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 70, then repeat: 700 / 83

Let's proceed to step 5:
700 divided by 83 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 298.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 664 from 700.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 369 / 83

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 369 by 83, we get 4 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2984.0
Deduct 332 from 369 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 7:
370 divided by 83 is 4 with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2984.4
Subtract 332 from 370 to get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
83 goes into 380 4 times with a remainder of 48.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2984.44
Subtracting 332 from 380 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 2984.44 with a remaining 0.048.
