We look at the division of 478757 by 47 
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 478757.

On to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
47 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 47 from 47.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 47

On to step 3:
47 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 47

Step 4:
47 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 101.0
Subtract 47 from 87 to get 40.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 405 / 47

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 47 fits into 405 8 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1018.0
Deduct 376 from 405 and we're left with 29.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 297 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 297 6 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10186.0
If we subtract 282 from 297, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 47 fits into 150 3 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 10186.3
If we subtract 141 from 150, 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.

Step 8:
47 can be fit into 90 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 43.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10186.31
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.

Advancing to step 9:
47 goes into 430 9 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10186.319
Deduct 423 from 430 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 10:
47 can be fit into 70 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 23.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10186.3191
Subtracting 47 from 70 leaves us with 23.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 230, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 230 4 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10186.31914
Deduct 188 from 230 and we're left 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.

Step 12:
47 can be fit into 420 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10186.319148
Subtracting 376 from 420 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
47 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 17.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10186.3191489
If we subtract 423 from 440, we get 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 14:
170 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 29.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10186.31914893
If we take 141 away from 170, we end up 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.

The quotient of the division is 10186.31914893, and the remainder is 2.9e-08.
