46729180 divided by 978 
We want to divide 46729180 by 978.

Going ahead to step 1:
4 divided by 978 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 978

Advancing to step 2:
978 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 467 / 978

Step 3:
When dividing 467 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 467.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 467, we get 467.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 467, then repeat: 4672 / 978

Moving on to step 4:
978 can be fit into 4672 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 760.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Subtract 3912 from 4672 to get 760.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 760, then repeat: 7609 / 978

Let's proceed to step 5:
978 can be fit into 7609 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 763.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtracting 6846 from 7609 leaves us with 763.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 763 and continue with: 7631 / 978

On to step 6:
7631 divided by 978 is 7 with a remainder of 785.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 477.0
If we subtract 6846 from 7631, we get 785.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 785, then repeat: 7858 / 978

Step 7:
978 goes into 7858 8 times with a remainder of 34.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4778.0
If we take 7824 away from 7858, we end up with 34.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 34 and continue: 340 / 978

Step 8:
When dividing 340 by 978, we get 0 with a remainder of 340.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47780.0
If we take 0 away from 340, we end up with 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
3400 divided by 978 is 3 with a remainder of 466.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47780.3
Deduct 2934 from 3400 and we're left with 466.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4660, and continue the process.

Step 10:
4660 divided by 978 is 4 with a remainder of 748.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47780.34
Deduct 3912 from 4660 and we're left with 748.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7480, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
If we divide 7480 by 978, we get 7 and a remainder of 634.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47780.347
Subtract 6846 from 7480 to get 634.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 978 fits into 6340 6 times, leaving a remainder of 472.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47780.3476
Subtract 5868 from 6340 to get 472.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4720, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
978 goes into 4720 4 times with a remainder of 808.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47780.34764
If we take 3912 away from 4720, we end up with 808.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8080, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
8080 divided by 978 is 8 with a remainder of 256.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47780.347648
Subtracting 7824 from 8080 leaves us with 256.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2560, and continue the process.

Step 15:
The number 978 fits into 2560 2 times, leaving a remainder of 604.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47780.3476482
Subtract 1956 from 2560 to get 604.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6040, and continue the process.

On to step 16:
The number 978 fits into 6040 6 times, leaving a remainder of 172.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47780.34764826
Deduct 5868 from 6040 and we're left with 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 47780.34764826 with a balance of 1.72e-07.
