Let's divide 285284 by 47
We want to figure out the number of times 285284 can be divided by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 28 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 28 0 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 28, then carry on: 285 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
285 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 3.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtract 282 from 285 to get 3.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 32 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
47 goes into 32 0 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 60.0
Deduct 0 from 32 and we're left with 32.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 32 and continue: 328 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
328 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 46.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 606.0
If we subtract 282 from 328, we get 46.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 464 / 47

On to step 6:
If we divide 464 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6069.0
Subtracting 423 from 464 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6069.8
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 376 from 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6069.87
Deduct 329 from 340 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 47 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6069.872
If we subtract 94 from 110, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6069.8723
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 141 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
47 goes into 190 4 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 6069.87234
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 188 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 12:
20 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6069.87234
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6069.8723404
If we subtract 188 from 200, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
47 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6069.87234042
Deduct 94 from 120 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 6069.87234042 and a remainder of 2.6e-08.
