We look at the division of 22472373 by 487 
We want to figure out the number of times 22472373 can be divided by 487.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 487 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 2, then repeat: 22 / 487

Going ahead to step 2:
22 divided by 487 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 22, we get 22.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 22 and continue: 224 / 487

On to step 3:
When dividing 224 by 487, we get 0 with a remainder of 224.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 224, we end up with 224.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 224 and repeat the process: 2247 / 487

Let's proceed to step 4:
2247 divided by 487 is 4 with a remainder of 299.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 1948 from 2247 to get 299.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 299 and continue with: 2992 / 487

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 2992 by 487, we get 6 with a remainder of 70.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46.0
If we subtract 2922 from 2992, we get 70.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 70, then repeat: 703 / 487

On to step 6:
When dividing 703 by 487, we get 1 with a remainder of 216.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 461.0
Subtracting 487 from 703 leaves us with 216.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 216, then repeat: 2167 / 487

Step 7:
When dividing 2167 by 487, we get 4 with a remainder of 219.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4614.0
Deduct 1948 from 2167 and we're left with 219.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 219, then carry on: 2193 / 487

On to step 8:
487 can be fit into 2193 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 245.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46144.0
If we take 1948 away from 2193, we end up with 245.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
2450 divided by 487 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 46144.5
Subtracting 2435 from 2450 leaves us with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 150 by 487, we get 0 and a remainder of 150.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46144.5
Subtracting 0 from 150 leaves us with 150.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
487 goes into 1500 3 times with a remainder of 39.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46144.503
Subtracting 1461 from 1500 leaves us with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 487 fits into 390 0 times, leaving a remainder of 390.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46144.503
Subtract 0 from 390 to get 390.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 487 fits into 3900 8 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46144.50308
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 3896 from 3900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 40 by 487, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 46144.50308
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 400 by 487, we get 0 with a remainder of 400.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46144.50308
Deduct 0 from 400 and we're left with 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4000, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 46144.50308 with a balance of 4e-06.
