Let's divide 512144 by 47
Our goal is to divide 512144 by 47.

Step 1:
47 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 47

On to step 2:
If we divide 51 by 47, we get 1 and a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 47 from 51, we get 4.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 42 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
47 goes into 42 0 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 42, we end up with 42.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 421 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
47 can be fit into 421 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 108.0
Subtracting 376 from 421 leaves us with 45.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 454 / 47

Step 5:
47 can be fit into 454 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1089.0
Subtracting 423 from 454 leaves us with 31.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 314 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
314 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 32.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10896.0
If we take 282 away from 314, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
47 goes into 320 6 times with a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 10896.6
If we take 282 away from 320, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
47 can be fit into 380 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10896.68
Subtract 376 from 380 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10896.68
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
47 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10896.6808
If we take 376 away from 400, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
47 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10896.68085
If we take 235 away from 240, we end up with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10896.680851
If we subtract 47 from 50, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 30 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 30.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10896.680851
Deduct 0 from 30 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 14:
47 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10896.68085106
Subtracting 282 from 300 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.

After the division, we end up with 10896.68085106 and a remainder of 1.8e-08.
