551586 ÷ 47 
We want to divide 551586 by 47.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 5 0 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 5 leaves us with 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 47

Moving on to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 55 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 47 from 55 and we're left with 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 47

Let's proceed to step 3:
47 goes into 81 1 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 47 away from 81, we end up with 34.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 34 and continue with: 345 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
The number 47 fits into 345 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 117.0
Deduct 329 from 345 and we're left with 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 47

On to step 5:
47 goes into 168 3 times with a remainder of 27.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1173.0
If we subtract 141 from 168, we get 27.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 27, then repeat: 276 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
47 goes into 276 5 times with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11735.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 235 from 276.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 410 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 11735.8
Subtracting 376 from 410 leaves us 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.

On to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11735.87
Subtracting 329 from 340 leaves us with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
110 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11735.872
Subtracting 94 from 110 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.

On to step 10:
160 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 19.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11735.8723
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.

Step 11:
190 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11735.87234
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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 20 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 11735.87234
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11735.8723404
Subtracting 188 from 200 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
47 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 26.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11735.87234042
Subtract 94 from 120 to 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 11735.87234042 with a balance of 2.6e-08.
