Let's divide 120243 by 47
We want to divide 120243 by 47.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
47 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 12 and we're left with 12.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 120 / 47

Step 3:
The number 47 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 94 from 120 leaves us with 26.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 262 / 47

Step 4:
If we divide 262 by 47, we get 5 and a remainder of 27.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 25.0
Subtract 235 from 262 to get 27.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 27 and repeat the process: 274 / 47

Step 5:
When dividing 274 by 47, we get 5 with a remainder of 39.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 255.0
Subtract 235 from 274 to get 39.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 393 / 47

Advancing to step 6:
The number 47 fits into 393 8 times, leaving a remainder of 17.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2558.0
Subtracting 376 from 393 leaves us with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Step 7:
170 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 29.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2558.3
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 141 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
The number 47 fits into 290 6 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2558.36
If we subtract 282 from 290, we 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.

Moving on to step 9:
80 divided by 47 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2558.361
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.

Going ahead to step 10:
47 can be fit into 330 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2558.3617
Deduct 329 from 330 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 10 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2558.3617
If we take 0 away from 10, we end up 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.

Step 12:
100 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2558.361702
If we take 94 away from 100, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 60 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 13.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2558.3617021
If we take 47 away from 60, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
130 divided by 47 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2558.36170212
If we subtract 94 from 130, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 2558.36170212, and the remainder is 3.6e-08.
