We divide 554917 by 46
We're looking to find how many times 46 goes into 554917.

Moving on to step 1:
5 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 46

On to step 2:
The number 46 fits into 55 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 55, we get 9.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 94 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
94 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Subtracting 92 from 94 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
46 can be fit into 29 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 29.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 120.0
Subtract 0 from 29 to get 29.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 29 and continue with: 291 / 46

Step 5:
46 goes into 291 6 times with a remainder of 15.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1206.0
If we take 276 away from 291, we end up with 15.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 15, then repeat: 157 / 46

Step 6:
When dividing 157 by 46, we get 3 with a remainder of 19.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12063.0
The remainder is 19 after subtracting 138 from 157.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

Step 7:
46 goes into 190 4 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12063.4
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 184 from 190.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
60 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12063.41
If we subtract 46 from 60, we 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.

Advancing to step 9:
140 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12063.413
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 20 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12063.413
If we take 0 away from 20, 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
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: 12063.41304
Subtracting 184 from 200 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
46 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12063.413043
Subtract 138 from 160 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 220 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12063.4130434
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 184 from 220.
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 14:
360 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12063.41304347
Deduct 322 from 360 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12063.41304347 with a balance of 3.8e-08.
