We divide 47873161 by 243
We want to figure out the number of times 47873161 can be divided by 243.

Step 1:
243 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 47 / 243

On to step 2:
243 goes into 47 0 times with a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 47 and we're left with 47.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 47, then repeat: 478 / 243

Moving on to step 3:
243 goes into 478 1 times with a remainder of 235.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 243 away from 478, we end up with 235.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 235, then repeat: 2357 / 243

Moving on to step 4:
243 can be fit into 2357 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 170.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtracting 2187 from 2357 leaves us with 170.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 170, then carry on: 1703 / 243

On to step 5:
243 can be fit into 1703 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 197.0
If we subtract 1701 from 1703, we get 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 243

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 21 by 243, we get 0 with a remainder of 21.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1970.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 0 from 21.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 216 / 243

Let's proceed to step 7:
243 can be fit into 216 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 216.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 19700.0
If we subtract 0 from 216, we get 216.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 216 and repeat the process: 2161 / 243

Step 8:
If we divide 2161 by 243, we get 8 and a remainder of 217.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197008.0
The remainder is 217 after subtracting 1944 from 2161.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2170, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 243 fits into 2170 8 times, leaving a remainder of 226.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 197008.8
The remainder is 226 after subtracting 1944 from 2170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2260, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 2260 by 243, we get 9 and a remainder of 73.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 197008.89
If we take 2187 away from 2260, we end up with 73.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 730, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
243 goes into 730 3 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 197008.893
If we subtract 729 from 730, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 10 by 243, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 197008.893
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
243 can be fit into 100 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 100.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 197008.893
The remainder is 100 after subtracting 0 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1000, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 197008.893 and a remainder of 0.0001.
