We look at the division of 46997859 by 796 
We're looking to find how many times 796 goes into 46997859.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 796, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 46 / 796

Advancing to step 2:
796 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 46 and we're left with 46.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 46 and continue: 469 / 796

Step 3:
796 can be fit into 469 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 469.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 469 leaves us with 469.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 469 and continue: 4699 / 796

Step 4:
796 goes into 4699 5 times with a remainder of 719.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 3980 from 4699 and we're left with 719.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 719 and repeat the process: 7197 / 796

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 7197 by 796, we get 9 with a remainder of 33.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 59.0
Deduct 7164 from 7197 and we're left with 33.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 33, then repeat: 338 / 796

Step 6:
796 goes into 338 0 times with a remainder of 338.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 590.0
If we subtract 0 from 338, we get 338.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 338 and continue with: 3385 / 796

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 3385 by 796, we get 4 with a remainder of 201.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5904.0
Subtract 3184 from 3385 to get 201.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 201 and continue: 2019 / 796

Step 8:
When dividing 2019 by 796, we get 2 with a remainder of 427.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59042.0
The remainder is 427 after subtracting 1592 from 2019.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 4270 by 796, we get 5 with a remainder of 290.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59042.5
Subtract 3980 from 4270 to get 290.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2900, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
If we divide 2900 by 796, we get 3 and a remainder of 512.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 59042.53
Deduct 2388 from 2900 and we're left with 512.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
796 goes into 5120 6 times with a remainder of 344.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 59042.536
The remainder is 344 after subtracting 4776 from 5120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 3440 by 796, we get 4 with a remainder of 256.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 59042.5364
Deduct 3184 from 3440 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
The number 796 fits into 2560 3 times, leaving a remainder of 172.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 59042.53643
If we subtract 2388 from 2560, we get 172.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1720, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 796 fits into 1720 2 times, leaving a remainder of 128.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59042.536432
Deduct 1592 from 1720 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.

Going ahead to step 15:
796 goes into 1280 1 times with a remainder of 484.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 59042.5364321
Subtracting 796 from 1280 leaves us with 484.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4840, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 16:
The number 796 fits into 4840 6 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 59042.53643216
Subtracting 4776 from 4840 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Our division results in 59042.53643216 with a remaining 6.4e-08.
