Let's divide 38446 by 46
We want to figure out the number of times 38446 can be divided by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
3 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 0 from 3.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 38 / 46

On to step 2:
The number 46 fits into 38 0 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 38 and we're left with 38.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 384 / 46

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 384 8 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 368 from 384 to get 16.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 16 and continue: 164 / 46

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 164 by 46, we get 3 with a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 83.0
If we take 138 away from 164, we end up with 26.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 266 / 46

Advancing to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 266 5 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 835.0
If we subtract 230 from 266, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 835.7
Subtract 322 from 360 to 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.

Moving on to 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: 835.78
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 368 from 380.
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 8:
46 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 835.782
Subtract 92 from 120 to get 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 9:
If we divide 280 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 835.7826
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 276 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 40 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 835.7826
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.

Advancing to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 835.782608
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.

Moving on to step 12:
320 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 835.7826086
Subtract 276 from 320 to get 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:
The number 46 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 835.78260869
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 414 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Our division results in 835.78260869 with a remaining 2.6e-08.
