47989 ÷ 5 
Our goal is to divide 47989 by 5.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 5 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 47 / 5

Going ahead to step 2:
5 goes into 47 9 times with a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 9.0
Subtracting 45 from 47 leaves us with 2.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 29 / 5

Step 3:
5 can be fit into 29 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 95.0
Subtract 25 from 29 to get 4.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 48 / 5

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 5 fits into 48 9 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 959.0
If we subtract 45 from 48, we get 3.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 3 and continue with: 39 / 5

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 39 by 5, we get 7 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9597.0
If we subtract 35 from 39, we 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.

On to step 6:
When dividing 40 by 5, we get 8 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9597.8
If we take 40 away from 40, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 0 by 5, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 9597.8
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 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 8:
0 divided by 5 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 9597.8
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 9597.8, with a leftover of 0.0.
