Let's divide 215814 by 46
We want to divide 215814 by 46.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 21 / 46

Going ahead to step 2:
21 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 21.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 21 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 215 / 46

On to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 215 4 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 31 after subtracting 184 from 215.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 318 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
318 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 42.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46.0
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 276 from 318.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 421 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
421 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 7.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 469.0
If we take 414 away from 421, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 74 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 can be fit into 74 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4691.0
Subtracting 46 from 74 leaves us with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4691.6
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 276 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
46 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4691.6
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.

Advancing to step 9:
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: 4691.608
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 320 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 44.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4691.6086
Deduct 276 from 320 and we're left 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 11:
440 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4691.60869
Subtract 414 from 440 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
46 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4691.608695
Subtracting 230 from 260 leaves us 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 13:
46 can be fit into 300 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4691.6086956
Deduct 276 from 300 and we're left with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
46 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4691.60869565
Subtract 230 from 240 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 4691.60869565 with a balance of 1e-08.
