550582 ÷ 46 
Our goal is to divide 550582 by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
5 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 55 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
The number 46 fits into 55 1 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 55 to get 9.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 90 / 46

On to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 90 1 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we subtract 46 from 90, we get 44.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 44, then repeat: 445 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 445 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 31.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 119.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 414 from 445.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 318 / 46

Step 5:
The number 46 fits into 318 6 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1196.0
If we subtract 276 from 318, we get 42.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 422 / 46

On to step 6:
46 can be fit into 422 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11969.0
If we take 414 away from 422, 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.

Step 7:
80 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11969.1
If we take 46 away from 80, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
46 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11969.17
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 322 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
The number 46 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11969.173
If we subtract 138 from 180, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
46 goes into 420 9 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 11969.1739
Subtract 414 from 420 to 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.

Step 11:
The number 46 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 11969.17391
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
46 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11969.173913
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.

On to step 13:
If we divide 20 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11969.173913
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11969.17391304
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Our division results in 11969.17391304 with a remaining 1.6e-08.
