216783 ÷ 46 
Our goal is to divide 216783 by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
46 can be fit into 21 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 21 and we're left with 21.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 216 / 46

On to step 3:
46 can be fit into 216 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 184 away from 216, we end up with 32.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 32, then repeat: 327 / 46

On to step 4:
46 goes into 327 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtracting 322 from 327 leaves us with 5.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 58 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 58 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 12.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 471.0
If we take 46 away from 58, we end up with 12.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 123 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
123 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 31.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4712.0
Deduct 92 from 123 and we're left with 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
310 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 4712.6
If we subtract 276 from 310, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
340 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4712.67
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.

On to step 9:
180 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 4712.673
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.

Let's proceed to step 10:
46 goes into 420 9 times with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4712.6739
Deduct 414 from 420 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4712.67391
Subtracting 46 from 60 leaves us with 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:
46 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4712.673913
Subtract 138 from 140 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 46 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4712.673913
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

On to step 14:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4712.67391304
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.

Our division results in 4712.67391304 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
