We divide 505687 by 47
We're looking to find how many times 47 goes into 505687.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 47, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 50 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
The number 47 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 47 from 50.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 35 / 47

Step 3:
35 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 35, we get 35.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 35 and continue with: 356 / 47

Going ahead to step 4:
47 goes into 356 7 times with a remainder of 27.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 107.0
Subtracting 329 from 356 leaves us with 27.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 278 / 47

Step 5:
278 divided by 47 is 5 with a remainder of 43.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1075.0
If we subtract 235 from 278, we get 43.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 43, then repeat: 437 / 47

Let's proceed to step 6:
When dividing 437 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10759.0
If we take 423 away from 437, we end up with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
47 can be fit into 140 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10759.2
Deduct 94 from 140 and we're left with 46.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 460, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
460 divided by 47 is 9 with a remainder of 37.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10759.29
If we take 423 away from 460, we end up with 37.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 370, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
If we divide 370 by 47, we get 7 and a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 10759.297
Subtracting 329 from 370 leaves us with 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 410 by 47, we get 8 and a remainder of 34.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10759.2978
If we take 376 away from 410, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 340 by 47, we get 7 with a remainder of 11.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10759.29787
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 329 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
47 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10759.297872
Deduct 94 from 110 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
The number 47 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10759.2978723
Subtracting 141 from 160 leaves us with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 190 by 47, we get 4 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10759.29787234
Subtract 188 from 190 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 10759.29787234 with a remainder of 2e-09.
