Let's divide 205711 by 47
We want to divide 205711 by 47.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 20 / 47

Going ahead to step 2:
20 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 205 / 47

On to step 3:
47 can be fit into 205 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtracting 188 from 205 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 177 / 47

Step 4:
The number 47 fits into 177 3 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 43.0
If we take 141 away from 177, we end up with 36.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 361 / 47

Step 5:
47 goes into 361 7 times with a remainder of 32.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 437.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 329 from 361.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 321 / 47

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 321 by 47, we get 6 and a remainder of 39.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4376.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 282 from 321.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
390 divided by 47 is 8 with a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4376.8
If we subtract 376 from 390, we get 14.
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 8:
140 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 46.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4376.82
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.

Step 9:
When dividing 460 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 37.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4376.829
Subtract 423 from 460 to get 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 47 fits into 370 7 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4376.8297
If we subtract 329 from 370, we 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 47 fits into 410 8 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4376.82978
Subtracting 376 from 410 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
The number 47 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4376.829787
If we subtract 329 from 340, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
47 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 16.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4376.8297872
Subtracting 94 from 110 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 14:
The number 47 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4376.82978723
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 4376.82978723 with a balance of 1.9e-08.
