508436 divided by 47 
Our goal is to divide 508436 by 47.

Step 1:
If we divide 5 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 50 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 50, we get 3.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 38 / 47

On to step 3:
47 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 38, we get 38.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 384 / 47

Step 4:
The number 47 fits into 384 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 108.0
If we take 376 away from 384, we end up with 8.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 83 / 47

Step 5:
83 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1081.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 47 from 83.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 366 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
366 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 37.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10817.0
If we take 329 away from 366, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
47 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10817.7
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.

Moving on to step 8:
410 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10817.78
If we take 376 away from 410, we end up 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 9:
If we divide 340 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10817.787
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 329 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 110 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10817.7872
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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
160 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10817.78723
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 141 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
190 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10817.787234
If we subtract 188 from 190, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10817.787234
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 200 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10817.78723404
Subtracting 188 from 200 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 10817.78723404 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
