We're dividing 47686 by 41 
We want to divide 47686 by 41.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 41 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 41

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 41, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 41 from 47, we get 6.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 6, then carry on: 66 / 41

Moving on to step 3:
The number 41 fits into 66 1 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 41 from 66, we get 25.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 258 / 41

On to step 4:
The number 41 fits into 258 6 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 116.0
If we subtract 246 from 258, we get 12.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 126 / 41

Let's proceed to step 5:
41 can be fit into 126 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1163.0
Subtracting 123 from 126 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
41 goes into 30 0 times with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1163.0
Subtracting 0 from 30 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 7:
41 goes into 300 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1163.07
If we take 287 away from 300, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
130 divided by 41 is 3 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1163.073
Subtracting 123 from 130 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 41 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1163.0731
Subtract 41 from 70 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 290 by 41, we get 7 with a remainder of 3.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1163.07317
Subtracting 287 from 290 leaves us with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
41 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1163.07317
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 41 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1163.0731707
Subtracting 287 from 300 leaves us with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
41 goes into 130 3 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1163.07317073
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 123 from 130.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 1163.07317073, with a leftover of 7e-09.
