We're dividing 471993 by 16 
We're looking to find how many times 16 goes into 471993.

Step 1:
4 divided by 16 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 47 / 16

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 16, we get 2 with a remainder of 15.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 32 from 47 and we're left with 15.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 15 and continue: 151 / 16

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 151 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 29.0
Subtract 144 from 151 to get 7.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 7 and continue: 79 / 16

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 79 by 16, we get 4 with a remainder of 15.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 294.0
If we subtract 64 from 79, we get 15.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 159 / 16

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 159 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 15.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2949.0
If we subtract 144 from 159, we get 15.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 15 and continue with: 153 / 16

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 153 by 16, we get 9 and a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 29499.0
Deduct 144 from 153 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 16, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29499.5
If we subtract 80 from 90, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 100 by 16, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29499.56
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 96 from 100.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
16 goes into 40 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29499.562
If we take 32 away from 40, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 16 fits into 80 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29499.5625
If we take 80 away from 80, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 0 by 16, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 29499.5625
If we subtract 0 from 0, we get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 0 by 16, we get 0 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 29499.5625
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 29499.5625 with a balance of 0.0.
