Let's divide 455987 by 45
We want to divide 455987 by 45.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 45

Let's proceed to step 2:
45 goes into 45 1 times with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 45 from 45, we get 0.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 5 / 45

Going ahead to step 3:
45 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 59 / 45

Going ahead to step 4:
59 divided by 45 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 101.0
If we take 45 away from 59, we end up with 14.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 14 and repeat the process: 148 / 45

Moving on to step 5:
45 can be fit into 148 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1013.0
Subtract 135 from 148 to get 13.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 13, then carry on: 137 / 45

Moving on to step 6:
45 goes into 137 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10133.0
If we subtract 135 from 137, we get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
When dividing 20 by 45, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 10133.0
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 45 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 10133.04
Subtracting 180 from 200 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
The number 45 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10133.044
Subtract 180 from 200 to 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.

Our division results in 10133.044 with a remaining 0.002.
