46278708 ÷ 87 
We want to divide 46278708 by 87.

Moving on to step 1:
87 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 87

Let's proceed to step 2:
46 divided by 87 is 0 with a remainder of 46.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 46, we get 46.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 46 and continue with: 462 / 87

Moving on to step 3:
The number 87 fits into 462 5 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 435 from 462 and we're left with 27.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 27 and continue with: 277 / 87

Advancing to step 4:
87 goes into 277 3 times with a remainder of 16.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 53.0
If we subtract 261 from 277, we get 16.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 168 / 87

Let's proceed to step 5:
87 can be fit into 168 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 81.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 531.0
If we take 87 away from 168, we end up with 81.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 81, then repeat: 817 / 87

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 817 by 87, we get 9 and a remainder of 34.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5319.0
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 783 from 817.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 340 / 87

Step 7:
When dividing 340 by 87, we get 3 with a remainder of 79.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 53193.0
If we subtract 261 from 340, we get 79.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 79, then repeat: 798 / 87

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 798 by 87, we get 9 with a remainder of 15.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531939.0
Subtract 783 from 798 to get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
87 can be fit into 150 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 63.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 531939.1
Subtract 87 from 150 to get 63.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
87 can be fit into 630 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531939.17
If we take 609 away from 630, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
210 divided by 87 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 531939.172
If we subtract 174 from 210, 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.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 360 by 87, we get 4 with a remainder of 12.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 531939.1724
Subtract 348 from 360 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
87 goes into 120 1 times with a remainder of 33.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531939.17241
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 87 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 14:
87 goes into 330 3 times with a remainder of 69.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531939.172413
Subtracting 261 from 330 leaves us with 69.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 690, and continue the process.

Step 15:
87 goes into 690 7 times with a remainder of 81.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 531939.1724137
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 609 from 690.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 87 fits into 810 9 times, leaving a remainder of 27.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 531939.17241379
If we subtract 783 from 810, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 531939.17241379 with a balance of 2.7e-08.
