We divide 74431559 by 47
Our goal is to divide 74431559 by 47.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 74 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 27.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 74, we get 27.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 274 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
The number 47 fits into 274 5 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 235 from 274 leaves us with 39.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 39 and repeat the process: 393 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
47 goes into 393 8 times with a remainder of 17.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 158.0
If we subtract 376 from 393, we get 17.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 17 and repeat the process: 171 / 47

Step 5:
When dividing 171 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1583.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 141 from 171.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 305 / 47

Step 6:
305 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 23.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15836.0
Deduct 282 from 305 and we're left with 23.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 235 / 47

On to step 7:
The number 47 fits into 235 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 158365.0
If we take 235 away from 235, we end up with 0.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 9 / 47

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1583650.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
47 goes into 90 1 times with a remainder of 43.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1583650.1
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 47 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
430 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1583650.19
Subtracting 423 from 430 leaves us with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 70 1 times, leaving a remainder of 23.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1583650.191
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 47 from 70.
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 12:
47 goes into 230 4 times with a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1583650.1914
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 420 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1583650.19148
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 376 from 420.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
440 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1583650.191489
Subtracting 423 from 440 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 47 fits into 170 3 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1583650.1914893
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 141 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Step 16:
47 can be fit into 290 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1583650.19148936
Deduct 282 from 290 and we're left 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.

Our division results in 1583650.19148936 with a remaining 8e-09.
