  • 1887145865 = 7
  • 5528695874 = 6
  • 0000085021 = 8

The sequence counts the number of circles in the number.

0001112359 has 4 circles, 3 in the zeros and 1 in the nine
1887145865 has 7 circles, 6 in the eights and 1 in the six
5528695874 has 6 circles, 4 in the eights and one each in the six and the nine
0000085021 has 8 circles, 6 in the zeros and 2 in the eight
3247514251 doesn't have any zeros

Therefore,

5847962150 = 5 with 1 circle in the zero, 1 in the nine, 1 in the six, and 2 in the eight
