We look at the division of 1277 by 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 1277.

Advancing to step 1:
1 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 12 / 47

Step 2:
47 goes into 12 0 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 127 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
47 goes into 127 2 times with a remainder of 33.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 94 from 127 and we're left with 33.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 337 / 47

On to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 337 7 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 329 from 337 to get 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 5:
The number 47 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.1
Subtracting 47 from 80 leaves us with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 330 7 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.17
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.

Advancing to step 7:
10 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27.17
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
47 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 27.1702
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 9:
47 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 27.17021
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 47 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
47 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.170212
If we subtract 94 from 130, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 47 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 27.1702127
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 12:
47 can be fit into 310 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 27.17021276
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 282 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 27.17021276, with a leftover of 2.8e-08.
