Let's divide 46213569 by 172
We want to divide 46213569 by 172.

Advancing to step 1:
The number 172 fits into 4 0 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 46 / 172

Step 2:
172 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 46 leaves us with 46.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 46, then repeat: 462 / 172

On to step 3:
When dividing 462 by 172, we get 2 with a remainder of 118.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
The remainder is 118 after subtracting 344 from 462.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 118 and repeat the process: 1181 / 172

Going ahead to step 4:
172 goes into 1181 6 times with a remainder of 149.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 1032 from 1181 to get 149.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 149 and continue with: 1493 / 172

Let's proceed to step 5:
The number 172 fits into 1493 8 times, leaving a remainder of 117.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 268.0
The remainder is 117 after subtracting 1376 from 1493.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 117, then repeat: 1175 / 172

Advancing to step 6:
172 can be fit into 1175 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 143.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 2686.0
If we take 1032 away from 1175, we end up with 143.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 143, then carry on: 1436 / 172

Let's proceed to step 7:
172 goes into 1436 8 times with a remainder of 60.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26868.0
Deduct 1376 from 1436 and we're left with 60.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 60, then repeat: 609 / 172

Let's proceed to step 8:
609 divided by 172 is 3 with a remainder of 93.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 268683.0
Subtracting 516 from 609 leaves us with 93.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 930, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 930 by 172, we get 5 and a remainder of 70.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 268683.5
The remainder is 70 after subtracting 860 from 930.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 700, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
172 goes into 700 4 times with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 268683.54
If we take 688 away from 700, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 172 fits into 120 0 times, leaving a remainder of 120.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 268683.54
If we take 0 away from 120, we end up with 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1200, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 172 fits into 1200 6 times, leaving a remainder of 168.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 268683.5406
If we take 1032 away from 1200, we end up with 168.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1680, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 1680 by 172, we get 9 with a remainder of 132.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 268683.54069
Deduct 1548 from 1680 and we're left with 132.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1320, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 1320 by 172, we get 7 with a remainder of 116.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 268683.540697
If we subtract 1204 from 1320, we get 116.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
When dividing 1160 by 172, we get 6 with a remainder of 128.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 268683.5406976
Subtract 1032 from 1160 to get 128.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1280, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
172 goes into 1280 7 times with a remainder of 76.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 268683.54069767
Subtracting 1204 from 1280 leaves us with 76.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 760, and continue the process.

Our division results in 268683.54069767 with a remaining 7.6e-08.
