Let's divide 755229 by 47
Let's see how many times 47 fits into 755229.

Step 1:
47 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 75 / 47

On to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 75 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 47 from 75 to get 28.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 285 / 47

On to step 3:
The number 47 fits into 285 6 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 282 from 285.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 32 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 32 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 32.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 160.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 0 from 32.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 322 / 47

Step 5:
If we divide 322 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 40.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1606.0
Subtracting 282 from 322 leaves us with 40.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 409 / 47

On to step 6:
409 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 33.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16068.0
Deduct 376 from 409 and we're left with 33.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 330 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 16068.7
Subtracting 329 from 330 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.

Step 8:
When dividing 10 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16068.7
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 100 by 47, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16068.702
If we take 94 away from 100, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 60 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 16068.7021
If we take 47 away from 60, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
47 goes into 130 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16068.70212
Subtract 94 from 130 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 360 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 31.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16068.702127
Subtract 329 from 360 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 310 by 47, we get 6 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16068.7021276
Subtracting 282 from 310 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 14:
47 can be fit into 280 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16068.70212765
If we subtract 235 from 280, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 16068.70212765 with a balance of 4.5e-08.
