Let's divide 46588402 by 3
Let's see how many times 3 fits into 46588402.

Let's proceed to step 1:
3 can be fit into 4 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 3 from 4 and we're left with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 3

Let's proceed to step 2:
If we divide 16 by 3, we get 5 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtract 15 from 16 to get 1.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 15 / 3

On to step 3:
The number 3 fits into 15 5 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 155.0
If we take 15 away from 15, we end up with 0.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 8 / 3

On to step 4:
3 can be fit into 8 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1552.0
If we subtract 6 from 8, we get 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 3

Moving on to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 28 9 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 15529.0
Deduct 27 from 28 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 3

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 14 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 155294.0
Subtract 12 from 14 to get 2.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 20 / 3

Advancing to step 7:
3 can be fit into 20 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1552946.0
Subtract 18 from 20 to get 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 3

Advancing to step 8:
3 goes into 22 7 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15529467.0
If we take 21 away from 22, we end up 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 9:
The number 3 fits into 10 3 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 15529467.3
If we take 9 away from 10, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 10 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 15529467.33
If we subtract 9 from 10, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 15529467.33 with a balance of 0.001.
