235431 ÷ 47 
We want to figure out the number of times 235431 can be divided by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 47 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 47

On to step 2:
When dividing 23 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 23.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 235 / 47

Advancing to step 3:
47 can be fit into 235 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 235 away from 235, we end up with 0.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 0 and continue: 4 / 47

Advancing to step 4:
47 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 50.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 43 / 47

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 43 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 43.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 500.0
If we take 0 away from 43, we end up with 43.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 43 and repeat the process: 431 / 47

Step 6:
If we divide 431 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 8.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5009.0
Subtract 423 from 431 to get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
47 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5009.1
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 47 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
47 can be fit into 330 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5009.17
Subtract 329 from 330 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 47 fits into 10 0 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5009.17
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
100 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5009.1702
Subtracting 94 from 100 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 60 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5009.17021
If we subtract 47 from 60, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
130 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5009.170212
If we take 94 away from 130, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 13:
47 goes into 360 7 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5009.1702127
If we subtract 329 from 360, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 310 6 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5009.17021276
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 282 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

The final result is 5009.17021276 with a remainder of 2.8e-08.
