We're dividing 553918 by 47 
Our goal is to divide 553918 by 47.

Let's proceed to step 1:
5 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 47

Step 2:
If we divide 55 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 55, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 83 / 47

Step 3:
47 goes into 83 1 times with a remainder of 36.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 47 from 83, we get 36.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 36 and repeat the process: 369 / 47

Step 4:
The number 47 fits into 369 7 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 117.0
Subtracting 329 from 369 leaves us with 40.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 401 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 401 8 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1178.0
Subtract 376 from 401 to get 25.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 25 and continue with: 258 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
258 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11785.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 235 from 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
230 divided by 47 is 4 with a remainder of 42.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11785.4
If we take 188 away from 230, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
47 can be fit into 420 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11785.48
Subtract 376 from 420 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
440 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11785.489
The remainder is 17 after subtracting 423 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 170 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 29.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11785.4893
Subtracting 141 from 170 leaves us with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 11:
290 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11785.48936
If we take 282 away from 290, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 47 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11785.489361
Subtract 47 from 80 to get 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Step 13:
330 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 1.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11785.4893617
Deduct 329 from 330 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
10 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 11785.4893617
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 11785.4893617 with a remaining 1e-08.
