Let's divide 798296 by 46
We want to divide 798296 by 46.

Advancing to step 1:
46 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 7 leaves us with 7.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 46

Step 2:
If we divide 79 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 79 to get 33.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 338 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
46 can be fit into 338 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
If we take 322 away from 338, we end up with 16.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 162 / 46

Step 4:
46 can be fit into 162 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 138 from 162 and we're left with 24.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 249 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
46 goes into 249 5 times with a remainder of 19.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1735.0
If we subtract 230 from 249, we get 19.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 19 and continue: 196 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 can be fit into 196 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17354.0
Deduct 184 from 196 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Step 7:
46 can be fit into 120 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17354.2
If we take 92 away from 120, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17354.26
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 40 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17354.26
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.

Step 10:
When dividing 400 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17354.2608
If we take 368 away from 400, we end up with 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 11:
The number 46 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17354.26086
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 276 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 17354.260869
Deduct 414 from 440 and we're left 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.

Moving on to step 13:
46 can be fit into 260 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17354.2608695
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.

Advancing to step 14:
300 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17354.26086956
Subtract 276 from 300 to 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.

The final result is 17354.26086956 with a remainder of 2.4e-08.
