We divide 243394 by 46
Our goal is to divide 243394 by 46.

Step 1:
If we divide 2 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 2 to get 2.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 24 / 46

On to step 2:
46 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 243 / 46

Going ahead to step 3:
If we divide 243 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 13.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 230 from 243 leaves us with 13.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 13 and continue: 133 / 46

On to step 4:
46 goes into 133 2 times with a remainder of 41.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 52.0
If we subtract 92 from 133, we get 41.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 41 and continue: 419 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 419 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 5.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 529.0
Subtract 414 from 419 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5291.0
Subtracting 46 from 54 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
80 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5291.1
Subtract 46 from 80 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
46 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5291.17
Deduct 322 from 340 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 180 by 46, we get 3 and a remainder of 42.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5291.173
If we subtract 138 from 180, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
46 can be fit into 420 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5291.1739
Deduct 414 from 420 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5291.17391
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5291.173913
If we subtract 138 from 140, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5291.173913
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5291.17391304
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5291.17391304 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
