Let's divide 881249 by 46
We want to divide 881249 by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 88 / 46

Step 2:
88 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 88, we get 42.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 421 / 46

On to step 3:
If we divide 421 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19.0
Subtract 414 from 421 to get 7.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 72 / 46

Advancing to step 4:
When dividing 72 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 26.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 191.0
Subtracting 46 from 72 leaves us with 26.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 26 and repeat the process: 264 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 264 5 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1915.0
Subtract 230 from 264 to get 34.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 349 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
349 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 19157.0
Subtract 322 from 349 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
If we divide 270 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 19157.5
Deduct 230 from 270 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 8:
400 divided by 46 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 19157.58
Subtracting 368 from 400 leaves us 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.

Step 9:
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: 19157.586
Subtracting 276 from 320 leaves us 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 10:
When dividing 440 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 19157.5869
If we take 414 away from 440, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 19157.58695
Subtract 230 from 260 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 19157.586956
If we take 276 away from 300, we end up 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.

Step 13:
If we divide 240 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19157.5869565
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 230 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
46 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 19157.58695652
If we subtract 92 from 100, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 19157.58695652 and a remainder of 8e-09.
