51604 ÷ 46 
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 51604.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 5 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 46

Step 2:
The number 46 fits into 51 1 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 51 to get 5.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 56 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 56 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 46 from 56 to get 10.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 100 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
100 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 112.0
Deduct 92 from 100 and we're left with 8.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 84 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 84 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1121.0
If we take 46 away from 84, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 380 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 1121.8
If we take 368 away from 380, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
46 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1121.82
If we take 92 away from 120, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 280 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1121.826
Subtracting 276 from 280 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 40 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 1121.826
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Step 10:
46 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1121.82608
If we subtract 368 from 400, we get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1121.826086
Subtracting 276 from 320 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
When dividing 440 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1121.8260869
If we take 414 away from 440, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 260 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 1121.82608695
Deduct 230 from 260 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 1121.82608695 with a balance of 3e-08.
