We divide 644917 by 47
We want to divide 644917 by 47.

Step 1:
6 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 6.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 6 leaves us with 6.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 64 / 47

On to step 2:
64 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 17.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 64, we get 17.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 17, then repeat: 174 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
The number 47 fits into 174 3 times, leaving a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 141 away from 174, we end up with 33.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 339 / 47

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 339 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 137.0
Subtract 329 from 339 to get 10.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 10, then repeat: 101 / 47

Step 5:
The number 47 fits into 101 2 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1372.0
If we take 94 away from 101, we end up with 7.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 77 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 77 1 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13721.0
If we subtract 47 from 77, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
47 goes into 300 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13721.6
If we subtract 282 from 300, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 47 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 39.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13721.63
Subtract 141 from 180 to get 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
47 can be fit into 390 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13721.638
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 376 from 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
The number 47 fits into 140 2 times, leaving a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13721.6382
Deduct 94 from 140 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
460 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13721.63829
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 423 from 460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
47 goes into 370 7 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13721.638297
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 329 from 370.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
410 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 34.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13721.6382978
If we take 376 away from 410, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 340 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 13721.63829787
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.

The quotient of the division is 13721.63829787, and the remainder is 1.1e-08.
