We look at the division of 46975487 by 994 
We're looking to find how many times 994 goes into 46975487.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 994 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 994

Going ahead to step 2:
994 can be fit into 46 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 469 / 994

Going ahead to step 3:
When dividing 469 by 994, we get 0 with a remainder of 469.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 469 and we're left with 469.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 469 and continue: 4697 / 994

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 994 fits into 4697 4 times, leaving a remainder of 721.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we subtract 3976 from 4697, we get 721.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 721 and continue: 7215 / 994

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 994 fits into 7215 7 times, leaving a remainder of 257.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47.0
Deduct 6958 from 7215 and we're left with 257.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 257, then carry on: 2574 / 994

Going ahead to step 6:
994 goes into 2574 2 times with a remainder of 586.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 472.0
Deduct 1988 from 2574 and we're left with 586.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 586 and continue with: 5868 / 994

Step 7:
The number 994 fits into 5868 5 times, leaving a remainder of 898.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4725.0
The remainder is 898 after subtracting 4970 from 5868.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 898, then repeat: 8987 / 994

Going ahead to step 8:
994 goes into 8987 9 times with a remainder of 41.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47259.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 8946 from 8987.
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 9:
410 divided by 994 is 0 with a remainder of 410.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47259.0
Subtract 0 from 410 to get 410.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
The number 994 fits into 4100 4 times, leaving a remainder of 124.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47259.04
If we subtract 3976 from 4100, we get 124.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
994 can be fit into 1240 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 246.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47259.041
If we subtract 994 from 1240, we get 246.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2460, and continue the process.

Step 12:
994 can be fit into 2460 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 472.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 47259.0412
Subtracting 1988 from 2460 leaves us with 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 4720 by 994, we get 4 with a remainder of 744.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47259.04124
If we take 3976 away from 4720, we end up with 744.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7440, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 7440 by 994, we get 7 with a remainder of 482.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47259.041247
Subtract 6958 from 7440 to get 482.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4820, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 994 fits into 4820 4 times, leaving a remainder of 844.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47259.0412474
If we take 3976 away from 4820, we end up with 844.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8440, and continue the process.

Step 16:
8440 divided by 994 is 8 with a remainder of 488.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47259.04124748
If we take 7952 away from 8440, we end up with 488.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4880, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 47259.04124748, and the remainder is 4.88e-07.
