We look at the division of 24701287 by 471 
We want to figure out the number of times 24701287 can be divided by 471.

Advancing to step 1:
471 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 471

Going ahead to step 2:
471 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 24 and we're left with 24.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 247 / 471

Step 3:
If we divide 247 by 471, we get 0 and a remainder of 247.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 247 and we're left with 247.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 247 and continue: 2470 / 471

Step 4:
2470 divided by 471 is 5 with a remainder of 115.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 2355 from 2470 leaves us with 115.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 115 and repeat the process: 1151 / 471

Advancing to step 5:
The number 471 fits into 1151 2 times, leaving a remainder of 209.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52.0
Deduct 942 from 1151 and we're left with 209.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 209 and continue: 2092 / 471

Step 6:
2092 divided by 471 is 4 with a remainder of 208.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 524.0
The remainder is 208 after subtracting 1884 from 2092.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 208 and repeat the process: 2088 / 471

On to step 7:
471 can be fit into 2088 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 204.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5244.0
If we take 1884 away from 2088, we end up with 204.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 204, then repeat: 2047 / 471

On to step 8:
471 can be fit into 2047 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 163.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52444.0
Deduct 1884 from 2047 and we're left with 163.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1630, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
1630 divided by 471 is 3 with a remainder of 217.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52444.3
Deduct 1413 from 1630 and we're left with 217.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 2170 by 471, we get 4 and a remainder of 286.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52444.34
Subtract 1884 from 2170 to get 286.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2860, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
471 can be fit into 2860 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52444.346
Subtract 2826 from 2860 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
340 divided by 471 is 0 with a remainder of 340.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52444.346
The remainder is 340 after subtracting 0 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 471 fits into 3400 7 times, leaving a remainder of 103.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 52444.34607
Subtract 3297 from 3400 to get 103.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1030, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 471 fits into 1030 2 times, leaving a remainder of 88.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 52444.346072
Deduct 942 from 1030 and we're left with 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
471 can be fit into 880 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 409.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 52444.3460721
If we subtract 471 from 880, we get 409.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4090, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
If we divide 4090 by 471, we get 8 and a remainder of 322.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 52444.34607218
Deduct 3768 from 4090 and we're left with 322.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3220, and continue the process.

Our division results in 52444.34607218 with a remaining 3.22e-07.
