487492 ÷ 47 
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 487492.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 48 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 48 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 47 from 48 and we're left with 1.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 17 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
47 can be fit into 17 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 0 from 17.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 17, then carry on: 174 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 174 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 103.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 141 from 174.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 339 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 339 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 1037.0
If we take 329 away from 339, we end up with 10.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 102 / 47

On to step 6:
47 can be fit into 102 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10372.0
Subtracting 94 from 102 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 80 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 33.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10372.1
If we subtract 47 from 80, we 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 330 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10372.17
Subtract 329 from 330 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
10 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10372.17
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10372.1702
Subtract 94 from 100 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
47 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10372.17021
Deduct 47 from 60 and we're left 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 12:
130 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10372.170212
Deduct 94 from 130 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 360 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10372.1702127
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 329 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
310 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10372.17021276
If we subtract 282 from 310, we get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10372.17021276 and a remainder of 2.8e-08.
