Let's divide 859742 by 47
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 859742.

Advancing to step 1:
47 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 85 / 47

On to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 85 1 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 47 from 85 and we're left with 38.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 389 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 389 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 13.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 376 from 389 to get 13.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 137 / 47

Step 4:
If we divide 137 by 47, we get 2 and a remainder of 43.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 182.0
Subtract 94 from 137 to get 43.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 43, then repeat: 434 / 47

Step 5:
The number 47 fits into 434 9 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1829.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 423 from 434.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 112 / 47

On to step 6:
47 goes into 112 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18292.0
If we take 94 away from 112, 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 7:
47 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18292.3
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 8:
The number 47 fits into 390 8 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 18292.38
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.

Step 9:
The number 47 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18292.382
Deduct 94 from 140 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
47 can be fit into 460 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18292.3829
Deduct 423 from 460 and we're left with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
47 can be fit into 370 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 41.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18292.38297
Subtracting 329 from 370 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.

Step 12:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18292.382978
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 13:
The number 47 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 18292.3829787
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 329 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18292.38297872
Deduct 94 from 110 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 18292.38297872, and the remainder is 1.6e-08.
