We divide 742966 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 742966.

Let's proceed to step 1:
7 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
When dividing 74 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 74, we get 27.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 272 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
272 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
If we subtract 235 from 272, we get 37.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 37, then repeat: 379 / 47

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 379 8 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 158.0
Subtract 376 from 379 to get 3.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 36 / 47

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 36 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 36.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1580.0
If we take 0 away from 36, we end up with 36.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 36, then carry on: 366 / 47

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 366 7 times, leaving a remainder of 37.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15807.0
If we subtract 329 from 366, we get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 7:
370 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15807.7
Subtract 329 from 370 to get 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 8:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15807.78
Deduct 376 from 410 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 9:
47 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15807.787
If we subtract 329 from 340, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 110 2 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 15807.7872
Subtract 94 from 110 to 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.

Advancing to step 11:
47 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 19.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15807.78723
If we subtract 141 from 160, we get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
190 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15807.787234
Deduct 188 from 190 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15807.787234
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
47 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15807.78723404
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 188 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Our division results in 15807.78723404 with a remaining 1.2e-08.
