248947 divided by 71 
We want to divide 248947 by 71.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 71 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 71

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 71 fits into 24 0 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 24 to get 24.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 248 / 71

On to step 3:
71 can be fit into 248 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 213 from 248.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 35, then carry on: 359 / 71

Step 4:
The number 71 fits into 359 5 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35.0
If we subtract 355 from 359, we get 4.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 44 / 71

On to step 5:
71 goes into 44 0 times with a remainder of 44.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 350.0
Subtracting 0 from 44 leaves us with 44.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 447 / 71

On to step 6:
If we divide 447 by 71, we get 6 and a remainder of 21.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3506.0
Subtract 426 from 447 to get 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 71 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 68.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3506.2
The remainder is 68 after subtracting 142 from 210.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 71 fits into 680 9 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3506.29
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 639 from 680.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
410 divided by 71 is 5 with a remainder of 55.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3506.295
Subtract 355 from 410 to get 55.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 550, and continue the process.

Step 10:
550 divided by 71 is 7 with a remainder of 53.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3506.2957
The remainder is 53 after subtracting 497 from 550.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 530, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
71 can be fit into 530 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3506.29577
Subtract 497 from 530 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 3506.29577 with a balance of 3.3e-05.
