98858 divided by 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 98858 can be divided by 46.

Moving on to step 1:
46 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 98 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 98 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 92 from 98.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 68 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
46 goes into 68 1 times with a remainder of 22.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21.0
If we subtract 46 from 68, we get 22.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 22, then carry on: 225 / 46

Step 4:
If we divide 225 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 214.0
If we take 184 away from 225, we end up with 41.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 418 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
46 can be fit into 418 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.0
If we take 414 away from 418, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 6:
If we divide 40 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2149.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 can be fit into 400 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.08
Subtract 368 from 400 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 46 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.086
Subtracting 276 from 320 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
440 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.0869
If we take 414 away from 440, we end up with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Step 10:
46 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.08695
If we take 230 away from 260, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 300 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2149.086956
If we subtract 276 from 300, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 240 5 times, leaving a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2149.0869565
If we take 230 away from 240, we end up with 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 13:
46 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2149.08695652
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2149.08695652 with a balance of 8e-09.
