We divide 493996 by 47
We want to figure out the number of times 493996 can be divided by 47.

Step 1:
The number 47 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 subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 47

Advancing to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 49 1 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 47 from 49 to get 2.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 23 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
23 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 0 from 23.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 47

Step 4:
If we divide 239 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 105.0
Subtract 235 from 239 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 47

Step 5:
If we divide 49 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1051.0
If we take 47 away from 49, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 26 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
47 goes into 26 0 times with a remainder of 26.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10510.0
Subtract 0 from 26 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.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 260 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 25.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10510.5
Subtracting 235 from 260 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
When dividing 250 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10510.55
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.

The final outcome is 10510.55, with a leftover of 0.015.
