We look at the division of 16947 by 12 
Our goal is to divide 16947 by 12.

Moving on to step 1:
12 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 16 / 12

Step 2:
The number 12 fits into 16 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 12 from 16 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 49 / 12

Step 3:
When dividing 49 by 12, we get 4 with a remainder of 1.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtract 48 from 49 to get 1.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 14 / 12

On to step 4:
If we divide 14 by 12, we get 1 and a remainder of 2.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 141.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 12 from 14.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 27 / 12

Moving on to step 5:
The number 12 fits into 27 2 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1412.0
Subtract 24 from 27 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 6:
12 can be fit into 30 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1412.2
Subtract 24 from 30 to get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 7:
60 divided by 12 is 5 with a remainder of 0.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1412.25
Subtracting 60 from 60 leaves us with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 0 by 12, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1412.25
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
12 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1412.25
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1412.25 and a remainder of 0.0.
