We divide 47461 by 86
We're looking to find how many times 86 goes into 47461.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 86 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 86

On to step 2:
The number 86 fits into 47 0 times, leaving a remainder of 47.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 47, we end up with 47.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 47 and repeat the process: 474 / 86

Step 3:
86 goes into 474 5 times with a remainder of 44.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 430 from 474.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 446 / 86

Advancing to step 4:
86 goes into 446 5 times with a remainder of 16.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 55.0
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 430 from 446.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 16, then repeat: 161 / 86

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 161 by 86, we get 1 with a remainder of 75.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.0
Deduct 86 from 161 and we're left with 75.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 750, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
86 can be fit into 750 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 551.8
Subtract 688 from 750 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
620 divided by 86 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.87
Subtracting 602 from 620 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 180 by 86, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 551.872
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 172 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 86 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 551.872
If we subtract 0 from 80, we get 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
86 can be fit into 800 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.87209
If we take 774 away from 800, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
260 divided by 86 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 551.872093
Subtracting 258 from 260 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 20 by 86, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 551.872093
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 13:
The number 86 fits into 200 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 551.87209302
Subtracting 172 from 200 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 551.87209302, and the remainder is 2.8e-08.
