We look at the division of 556474 by 47 
We want to figure out the number of times 556474 can be divided by 47.

On to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 55 / 47

Step 2:
47 goes into 55 1 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 47 from 55 leaves us with 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
The number 47 fits into 86 1 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 47 away from 86, we end up with 39.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 394 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 394 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 118.0
Deduct 376 from 394 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 187 / 47

On to step 5:
If we divide 187 by 47, we get 3 and a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1183.0
Deduct 141 from 187 and we're left with 46.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 464 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
464 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11839.0
Subtract 423 from 464 to get 41.
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 7:
47 can be fit into 410 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11839.8
Subtract 376 from 410 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
47 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11839.87
If we take 329 away from 340, we end up with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
47 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11839.872
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 94 from 110.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
47 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11839.8723
Subtract 141 from 160 to get 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 190 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11839.87234
Subtracting 188 from 190 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 12:
20 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11839.87234
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11839.8723404
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 188 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
When dividing 120 by 47, we get 2 with a remainder of 26.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11839.87234042
If we take 94 away from 120, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 11839.87234042, and the remainder is 2.6e-08.
