We divide 872922 by 47
We want to figure out the number of times 872922 can be divided by 47.

Moving on to step 1:
47 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 8 leaves us with 8.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 87 / 47

On to step 2:
47 goes into 87 1 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 87, we get 40.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 402 / 47

Going ahead to step 3:
402 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 376 from 402 to get 26.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 269 / 47

On to step 4:
47 goes into 269 5 times with a remainder of 34.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 185.0
If we subtract 235 from 269, we get 34.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 34 and repeat the process: 342 / 47

Advancing to step 5:
342 divided by 47 is 7 with a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1857.0
Subtracting 329 from 342 leaves us with 13.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 132 / 47

Let's proceed to step 6:
132 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18572.0
If we take 94 away from 132, 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.

On to step 7:
The number 47 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18572.8
Subtract 376 from 380 to 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
47 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18572.8
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 400 by 47, we get 8 with a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18572.808
Deduct 376 from 400 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
240 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18572.8085
Deduct 235 from 240 and we're left with 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 11:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18572.80851
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 47 from 50.
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 12:
If we divide 30 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18572.80851
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
47 goes into 300 6 times with a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18572.8085106
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
47 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18572.80851063
If we subtract 141 from 180, we 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.

After the division, we end up with 18572.80851063 and a remainder of 3.9e-08.
