Let's divide 127982 by 46
We want to figure out the number of times 127982 can be divided by 46.

Step 1:
The number 46 fits into 1 0 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 12 / 46

On to step 2:
46 can be fit into 12 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 12 to get 12.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 12, then repeat: 127 / 46

Step 3:
46 can be fit into 127 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 92 from 127 to get 35.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 35, then repeat: 359 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
If we divide 359 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 37.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 27.0
Subtract 322 from 359 to get 37.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 378 / 46

On to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 378 8 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 278.0
If we take 368 away from 378, we end up with 10.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 10, then repeat: 102 / 46

On to step 6:
When dividing 102 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2782.0
Subtract 92 from 102 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
When dividing 100 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2782.2
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
80 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2782.21
Subtract 46 from 80 to 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.

Step 9:
The number 46 fits into 340 7 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2782.217
Subtracting 322 from 340 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 46 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2782.2173
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 138 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 420 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2782.21739
If we subtract 414 from 420, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
46 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2782.217391
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left 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.

On to step 13:
140 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 2.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2782.2173913
If we take 138 away from 140, 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.

Advancing to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2782.2173913
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.

The quotient of the division is 2782.2173913, and the remainder is 2e-08.
