We divide 196989 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 196989.

On to step 1:
47 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 19 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 19 0 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 19 and we're left with 19.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 19, then repeat: 196 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
47 can be fit into 196 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 188 from 196.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 89 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 89 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 41.0
If we subtract 47 from 89, we get 42.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 428 / 47

On to step 5:
When dividing 428 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 419.0
If we take 423 away from 428, we end up with 5.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 59 / 47

On to step 6:
When dividing 59 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 12.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4191.0
If we subtract 47 from 59, 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.

On to step 7:
47 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4191.2
Subtracting 94 from 120 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
260 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4191.25
Subtract 235 from 260 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
47 can be fit into 250 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4191.255
If we take 235 away from 250, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4191.255 with a remaining 0.0015.
