We look at the division of 47236455 by 478 
We want to divide 47236455 by 478.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 478 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 478

Let's proceed to step 2:
478 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 47 to get 47.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 47 and continue with: 472 / 478

Going ahead to step 3:
478 can be fit into 472 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 472.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 472, we get 472.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 472 and continue with: 4723 / 478

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 4723 by 478, we get 9 with a remainder of 421.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 4302 from 4723 leaves us with 421.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 421, then carry on: 4216 / 478

On to step 5:
If we divide 4216 by 478, we get 8 and a remainder of 392.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 98.0
Subtracting 3824 from 4216 leaves us with 392.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 392, then repeat: 3924 / 478

Going ahead to step 6:
478 goes into 3924 8 times with a remainder of 100.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 988.0
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 3824 from 3924.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 100, then repeat: 1005 / 478

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 1005 by 478, we get 2 and a remainder of 49.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9882.0
Subtracting 956 from 1005 leaves us with 49.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 495 / 478

Advancing to step 8:
478 goes into 495 1 times with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98821.0
If we subtract 478 from 495, 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.

Step 9:
If we divide 170 by 478, we get 0 and a remainder of 170.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 98821.0
The remainder is 170 after subtracting 0 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
478 can be fit into 1700 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 266.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 98821.03
Subtract 1434 from 1700 to get 266.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2660, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
When dividing 2660 by 478, we get 5 with a remainder of 270.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 98821.035
Subtracting 2390 from 2660 leaves us with 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2700, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
478 goes into 2700 5 times with a remainder of 310.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 98821.0355
If we take 2390 away from 2700, we end up with 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3100, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 98821.0355, with a leftover of 0.0031.
