Let's divide 160982 by 47
Our goal is to divide 160982 by 47.

On to step 1:
47 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 16 / 47

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 16, we get 16.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 160 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
160 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 141 from 160 and we're left with 19.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 19 and continue with: 199 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
47 can be fit into 199 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 34.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 188 from 199.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 118 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
47 can be fit into 118 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 342.0
If we subtract 94 from 118, we get 24.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 242 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 242 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3425.0
If we subtract 235 from 242, we get 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
70 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 23.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3425.1
Subtracting 47 from 70 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
47 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3425.14
Subtracting 188 from 230 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3425.148
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 376 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 440 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3425.1489
Deduct 423 from 440 and we're left with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
170 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 29.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3425.14893
If we take 141 away from 170, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 290 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3425.148936
If we take 282 away from 290, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3425.1489361
Subtract 47 from 80 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 330 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3425.14893617
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 329 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 3425.14893617 and a remainder of 1e-09.
