We're dividing 47974372 by 264 
We're looking to find how many times 264 goes into 47974372.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 264 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 264

On to step 2:
47 divided by 264 is 0 with a remainder of 47.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 47 leaves us with 47.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 479 / 264

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 479 by 264, we get 1 with a remainder of 215.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 264 from 479 leaves us with 215.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 215, then carry on: 2157 / 264

Step 4:
264 goes into 2157 8 times with a remainder of 45.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
If we take 2112 away from 2157, we end up with 45.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 454 / 264

Moving on to step 5:
454 divided by 264 is 1 with a remainder of 190.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 181.0
Subtracting 264 from 454 leaves us with 190.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 190 and repeat the process: 1903 / 264

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 264 fits into 1903 7 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1817.0
If we take 1848 away from 1903, we end up with 55.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 55 and continue with: 557 / 264

On to step 7:
557 divided by 264 is 2 with a remainder of 29.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18172.0
Subtract 528 from 557 to get 29.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 29, then carry on: 292 / 264

Step 8:
When dividing 292 by 264, we get 1 with a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 181721.0
If we take 264 away from 292, we end up 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 9:
280 divided by 264 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181721.1
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 264 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
264 goes into 160 0 times with a remainder of 160.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 181721.1
If we take 0 away from 160, we end up with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 1600 by 264, we get 6 and a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181721.106
If we subtract 1584 from 1600, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 264 fits into 160 0 times, leaving a remainder of 160.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181721.106
Subtracting 0 from 160 leaves us with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
264 goes into 1600 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181721.10606
Subtracting 1584 from 1600 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 160 by 264, we get 0 and a remainder of 160.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 181721.10606
Subtract 0 from 160 to get 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 15:
264 goes into 1600 6 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 181721.1060606
Subtracting 1584 from 1600 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 16:
When dividing 160 by 264, we get 0 with a remainder of 160.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 181721.1060606
Deduct 0 from 160 and we're left with 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1600, and continue the process.

Our division results in 181721.1060606 with a remaining 1.6e-07.
