We're dividing 281338 by 46 
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 281338.

On to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 28 / 46

Step 2:
46 goes into 28 0 times with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 28 to get 28.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 281 / 46

Going ahead to step 3:
281 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 5.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 6.0
Subtracting 276 from 281 leaves us with 5.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 53 / 46

On to step 4:
53 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 61.0
If we take 46 away from 53, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 73 / 46

Step 5:
73 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 611.0
The remainder is 27 after subtracting 46 from 73.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 27 and continue: 278 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 278 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6116.0
Subtract 276 from 278 to 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.

Step 7:
If we divide 20 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6116.0
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 8:
When dividing 200 by 46, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 6116.04
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.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 46 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6116.043
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 10:
46 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 6116.0434
If we take 184 away from 220, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6116.04347
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 322 from 360.
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 12:
When dividing 380 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 6116.043478
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 120 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 6116.0434782
Subtracting 92 from 120 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 280 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 6116.04347826
Deduct 276 from 280 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 6116.04347826 and a remainder of 4e-09.
