We're dividing 512873 by 461 
We're looking to find how many times 461 goes into 512873.

Moving on to step 1:
461 goes into 5 0 times 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.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 51 / 461

On to step 2:
461 can be fit into 51 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 51.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 51, we get 51.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 51 and continue with: 512 / 461

On to step 3:
512 divided by 461 is 1 with a remainder of 51.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 461 from 512 and we're left with 51.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 51, then repeat: 518 / 461

On to step 4:
461 can be fit into 518 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 57.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
Deduct 461 from 518 and we're left with 57.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 57 and continue: 577 / 461

Step 5:
461 goes into 577 1 times with a remainder of 116.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we take 461 away from 577, we end up with 116.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 116, then repeat: 1163 / 461

Moving on to step 6:
461 goes into 1163 2 times with a remainder of 241.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1112.0
If we take 922 away from 1163, we end up with 241.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2410, and continue the process.

Step 7:
461 goes into 2410 5 times with a remainder of 105.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1112.5
Subtracting 2305 from 2410 leaves us with 105.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1050, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
1050 divided by 461 is 2 with a remainder of 128.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1112.52
Deduct 922 from 1050 and we're left with 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Step 9:
461 can be fit into 1280 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 358.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1112.522
If we subtract 922 from 1280, we get 358.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1112.522 with a balance of 0.0358.
