We're dividing 899142 by 47 
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 899142.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 89 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 89 1 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 47 away from 89, we end up with 42.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 42, then repeat: 429 / 47

On to step 3:
If we divide 429 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 19.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 423 from 429.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 6, then repeat: 61 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 61 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 191.0
Subtracting 47 from 61 leaves us with 14.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 144 / 47

On to step 5:
47 goes into 144 3 times with a remainder of 3.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1913.0
Subtract 141 from 144 to get 3.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 32 / 47

Step 6:
The number 47 fits into 32 0 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19130.0
Subtract 0 from 32 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 320 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19130.6
If we take 282 away from 320, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19130.68
If we subtract 376 from 380, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 47 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19130.68
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 400 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19130.6808
If we subtract 376 from 400, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19130.68085
Subtract 235 from 240 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
47 can be fit into 50 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 19130.680851
Subtract 47 from 50 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 30 0 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19130.680851
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
300 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 19130.68085106
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 282 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 19130.68085106, and the remainder is 1.8e-08.
