Let's divide 531809 by 47
Our goal is to divide 531809 by 47.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 53 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 53 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 6.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 47 from 53 leaves us with 6.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 61 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
When dividing 61 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 47 from 61.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 148 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
47 can be fit into 148 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 113.0
Deduct 141 from 148 and we're left with 7.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 70 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
47 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1131.0
Subtracting 47 from 70 leaves us with 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
47 goes into 239 5 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11315.0
Subtracting 235 from 239 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 7:
47 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11315.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
400 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11315.08
Subtract 376 from 400 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
240 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11315.085
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 235 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 50 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11315.0851
Deduct 47 from 50 and we're left with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
30 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11315.0851
Subtract 0 from 30 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 300 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11315.085106
If we take 282 away from 300, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
180 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11315.0851063
If we take 141 away from 180, we end up with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
If we divide 390 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 14.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11315.08510638
Subtracting 376 from 390 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

The final result is 11315.08510638 with a remainder of 1.4e-08.
