Let's divide 462878 by 33
We want to figure out the number of times 462878 can be divided by 33.

Advancing to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 33, we get 0 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 46 / 33

Step 2:
The number 33 fits into 46 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 33 from 46 to get 13.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 13 and repeat the process: 132 / 33

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 33 fits into 132 4 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14.0
Subtracting 132 from 132 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 8 / 33

Let's proceed to step 4:
33 can be fit into 8 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 140.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 87 / 33

Moving on to step 5:
33 can be fit into 87 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1402.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 66 from 87.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 33

On to step 6:
The number 33 fits into 218 6 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14026.0
If we take 198 away from 218, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 200 by 33, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14026.6
If we subtract 198 from 200, 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.

On to step 8:
33 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14026.6
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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 200 by 33, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14026.606
Subtract 198 from 200 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.

On to step 10:
33 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 14026.606
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.

Step 11:
The number 33 fits into 200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 14026.60606
Subtracting 198 from 200 leaves us with 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 12:
33 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 14026.60606
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 33 fits into 200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 14026.6060606
If we take 198 away from 200, we end up with 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 14:
When dividing 20 by 33, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 14026.6060606
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 14026.6060606 with a balance of 2e-08.
