Let's divide 562480 by 46
We want to figure out the number of times 562480 can be divided by 46.

Moving on to step 1:
46 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 56 / 46

Step 2:
When dividing 56 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 46 from 56 leaves us with 10.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 10 and continue: 102 / 46

On to step 3:
102 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 92 from 102.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 10, then carry on: 104 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
46 goes into 104 2 times with a remainder of 12.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 122.0
Deduct 92 from 104 and we're left with 12.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 12, then repeat: 128 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
128 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1222.0
Deduct 92 from 128 and we're left with 36.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 360 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12227.0
If we subtract 322 from 360, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 7:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12227.8
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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 46 fits into 120 2 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12227.82
Deduct 92 from 120 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 9:
When dividing 280 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12227.826
If we subtract 276 from 280, we get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 10:
The number 46 fits into 40 0 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12227.826
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
46 goes into 400 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12227.82608
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.

On to step 12:
46 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12227.826086
If we take 276 away from 320, we end up 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 13:
46 can be fit into 440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 12227.8260869
Deduct 414 from 440 and we're left 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.

Step 14:
260 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12227.82608695
If we subtract 230 from 260, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Our division results in 12227.82608695 with a remaining 3e-08.
