We divide 45960507 by 261
We want to divide 45960507 by 261.

Moving on to step 1:
261 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 45 / 261

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 45 by 261, we get 0 with a remainder of 45.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 45, we get 45.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 45, then carry on: 459 / 261

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 261 fits into 459 1 times, leaving a remainder of 198.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 261 from 459 to get 198.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 198, then carry on: 1986 / 261

Advancing to step 4:
The number 261 fits into 1986 7 times, leaving a remainder of 159.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 159 after subtracting 1827 from 1986.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 159, then repeat: 1590 / 261

Step 5:
If we divide 1590 by 261, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 176.0
Subtracting 1566 from 1590 leaves us with 24.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 24, then repeat: 245 / 261

Moving on to step 6:
The number 261 fits into 245 0 times, leaving a remainder of 245.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1760.0
The remainder is 245 after subtracting 0 from 245.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 245 and repeat the process: 2450 / 261

Step 7:
The number 261 fits into 2450 9 times, leaving a remainder of 101.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17609.0
Subtract 2349 from 2450 to get 101.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 101 and continue: 1017 / 261

On to step 8:
261 can be fit into 1017 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 234.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 176093.0
Deduct 783 from 1017 and we're left with 234.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2340, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
261 can be fit into 2340 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 252.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 176093.8
The remainder is 252 after subtracting 2088 from 2340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2520, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
261 can be fit into 2520 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 171.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 176093.89
Subtract 2349 from 2520 to get 171.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1710, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
1710 divided by 261 is 6 with a remainder of 144.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 176093.896
Subtracting 1566 from 1710 leaves us with 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 1440 by 261, we get 5 with a remainder of 135.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 176093.8965
The remainder is 135 after subtracting 1305 from 1440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
261 goes into 1350 5 times with a remainder of 45.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 176093.89655
Deduct 1305 from 1350 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 176093.89655 with a balance of 4.5e-05.
