We look at the division of 234643 by 46 
Our goal is to divide 234643 by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 2 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 23 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
23 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 23.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 23, we end up with 23.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 23 and repeat the process: 234 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
234 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 4.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Deduct 230 from 234 and we're left with 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 46

On to step 4:
The number 46 fits into 46 1 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 51.0
Subtracting 46 from 46 leaves us with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 4 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 510.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 43 / 46

On to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 43 0 times, leaving a remainder of 43.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5100.0
The remainder is 43 after subtracting 0 from 43.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 430, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
430 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 16.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5100.9
If we subtract 414 from 430, 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.

Advancing to step 8:
46 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 5100.93
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 138 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 220 by 46, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5100.934
If we take 184 away from 220, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5100.9347
If we take 322 away from 360, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Step 11:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5100.93478
If we subtract 368 from 380, we get 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 12:
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: 5100.934782
Subtract 92 from 120 to get 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 46 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5100.9347826
Deduct 276 from 280 and we're left with 4.
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 14:
40 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5100.9347826
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5100.9347826, with a leftover of 4e-08.
