Let's divide 999493 by 46
We're looking to find how many times 46 goes into 999493.

Going ahead to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 99 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
99 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 92 away from 99, we end up with 7.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 79 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 79 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 33.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 46 from 79.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 334 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
334 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 217.0
Subtracting 322 from 334 leaves us with 12.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 12 and continue with: 129 / 46

On to step 5:
When dividing 129 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2172.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 92 from 129.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 37 and repeat the process: 373 / 46

Advancing to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 373 8 times, leaving a remainder of 5.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21728.0
Deduct 368 from 373 and we're left with 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 50 1 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 21728.1
Subtract 46 from 50 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
40 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21728.1
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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 400 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21728.108
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.

Moving on to step 10:
46 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21728.1086
Deduct 276 from 320 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 11:
46 goes into 440 9 times with a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21728.10869
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 414 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 260 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21728.108695
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21728.1086956
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.

Advancing to step 14:
240 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 21728.10869565
Deduct 230 from 240 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Our division results in 21728.10869565 with a remaining 1e-08.
