47931043 ÷ 3 
We want to figure out the number of times 47931043 can be divided by 3.

Step 1:
When dividing 4 by 3, we get 1 with a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 3 away from 4, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 3

On to step 2:
If we divide 17 by 3, we get 5 and a remainder of 2.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 15 from 17 to get 2.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 29 / 3

Advancing to step 3:
3 goes into 29 9 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 159.0
If we take 27 away from 29, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 3

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 23 by 3, we get 7 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1597.0
If we take 21 away from 23, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 21 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
3 can be fit into 21 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 15977.0
Subtract 21 from 21 to get 0.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 0 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 0 by 3, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 159770.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 4 / 3

Moving on to step 7:
If we divide 4 by 3, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1597701.0
Subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 3

On to step 8:
3 can be fit into 13 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15977014.0
If we subtract 12 from 13, 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
3 can be fit into 10 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15977014.3
Subtracting 9 from 10 leaves us 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.

Moving on to step 10:
3 can be fit into 10 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15977014.33
Subtracting 9 from 10 leaves us 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.

Our division results in 15977014.33 with a remaining 0.001.
