538466 divided by 2 
We're looking to find how many times 2 goes into 538466.

Step 1:
When dividing 5 by 2, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 4 from 5 and we're left with 1.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 13 / 2

Going ahead to step 2:
The number 2 fits into 13 6 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtracting 12 from 13 leaves us with 1.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 18 / 2

Advancing to step 3:
If we divide 18 by 2, we get 9 and a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 269.0
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 18 from 18.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 4 / 2

Moving on to step 4:
4 divided by 2 is 2 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2692.0
Subtracting 4 from 4 leaves us with 0.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 6 / 2

Moving on to step 5:
6 divided by 2 is 3 with a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26923.0
Subtract 6 from 6 to get 0.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 0, then repeat: 6 / 2

Going ahead to step 6:
If we divide 6 by 2, we get 3 and a remainder of 0.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 269233.0
Deduct 6 from 6 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 2 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 269233.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
2 goes into 0 0 times with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 269233.0
If we take 0 away from 0, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final result is 269233.0 with a remainder of 0.0.
