Let's divide 984901 by 47
Our goal is to divide 984901 by 47.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 98 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 47, we get 2 and a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 94 from 98 to get 4.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 44 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
47 can be fit into 44 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 0 from 44.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 449 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 449 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 209.0
Deduct 423 from 449 and we're left with 26.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 260 / 47

On to step 5:
47 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2095.0
Subtract 235 from 260 to get 25.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 251 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 251 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 16.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20955.0
Subtracting 235 from 251 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 47 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 20955.3
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 141 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 8:
190 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 20955.34
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 9:
If we divide 20 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20955.34
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
47 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 20955.3404
Deduct 188 from 200 and we're left with 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 11:
47 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20955.34042
If we subtract 94 from 120, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 260 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20955.340425
If we subtract 235 from 260, we 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 13:
When dividing 250 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20955.3404255
Subtracting 235 from 250 leaves us 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 20955.3404255 with a balance of 1.5e-07.
