We look at the division of 511781 by 46 
Our goal is to divide 511781 by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
46 can be fit into 5 0 times, resulting in 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.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 51 / 46

Step 2:
If we divide 51 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 51, we get 5.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 51 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 51 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 5.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11.0
Subtract 46 from 51 to get 5.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 57 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
57 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 111.0
If we subtract 46 from 57, we get 11.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 11, then repeat: 118 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
46 goes into 118 2 times with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 1112.0
If we subtract 92 from 118, we get 26.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 26 and continue: 261 / 46

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 261 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 11125.0
If we subtract 230 from 261, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 310 6 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 11125.6
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 276 from 310.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 8:
46 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11125.67
If we take 322 away from 340, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 9:
180 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11125.673
Deduct 138 from 180 and we're left with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 420 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11125.6739
If we subtract 414 from 420, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 11:
If we divide 60 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11125.67391
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.

Step 12:
140 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 11125.673913
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:
The number 46 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11125.673913
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing 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: 11125.67391304
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

The final result is 11125.67391304 with a remainder of 1.6e-08.
