Let's divide 172300 by 47
We want to divide 172300 by 47.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 17 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 172 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
172 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 31.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3.0
Deduct 141 from 172 and we're left with 31.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 313 / 47

Step 4:
When dividing 313 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 31.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 282 from 313.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 310 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
47 goes into 310 6 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 366.0
If we subtract 282 from 310, we get 28.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 28, then repeat: 280 / 47

Step 6:
If we divide 280 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3665.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 235 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Step 7:
47 goes into 450 9 times with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3665.9
Subtracting 423 from 450 leaves us with 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 270 5 times, leaving a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 3665.95
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 235 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 350 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 21.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3665.957
Deduct 329 from 350 and we're left with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 210 4 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 3665.9574
Deduct 188 from 210 and we're left with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 11:
220 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3665.95744
Subtracting 188 from 220 leaves us with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 3665.95744, and the remainder is 3.2e-05.
