We're dividing 41873 by 47 
We want to divide 41873 by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
47 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 41 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 41 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 41.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 41, we end up with 41.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 418 / 47

On to step 3:
47 goes into 418 8 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 376 from 418.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 42, then repeat: 427 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 427 9 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 89.0
Deduct 423 from 427 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 43 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 43 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 890.0
Deduct 0 from 43 and we're left with 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 430 9 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 890.9
Subtracting 423 from 430 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 70 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 23.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 890.91
Deduct 47 from 70 and we're left 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.

On to step 8:
230 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 890.914
Deduct 188 from 230 and we're left 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.

On to step 9:
47 goes into 420 8 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 890.9148
Deduct 376 from 420 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
47 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 890.91489
If we subtract 423 from 440, we get 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:
47 can be fit into 170 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 890.914893
Subtract 141 from 170 to get 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 47 fits into 290 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 890.9148936
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
47 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 890.91489361
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.

Our division results in 890.91489361 with a remaining 3.3e-08.
