117946 ÷ 45 
We're looking to find how many times 45 goes into 117946.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 1 and we're left with 1.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 1, then repeat: 11 / 45

On to step 2:
The number 45 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 11 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 117 / 45

Step 3:
If we divide 117 by 45, we get 2 and a remainder of 27.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 90 from 117 to get 27.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 27, then carry on: 279 / 45

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 279 by 45, we get 6 with a remainder of 9.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 270 from 279 to get 9.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 9 and continue: 94 / 45

Step 5:
94 divided by 45 is 2 with a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 262.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 90 from 94.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 45

Step 6:
If we divide 46 by 45, we get 1 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 2621.0
Deduct 45 from 46 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
45 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2621.0
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us 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.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 100 by 45, we get 2 and a remainder of 10.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2621.02
If we take 90 away from 100, 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 9:
100 divided by 45 is 2 with a remainder of 10.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2621.022
Subtract 90 from 100 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.

In conclusion, the division gives 2621.022 with a balance of 0.001.
