We're dividing 918659 by 45 
Our goal is to divide 918659 by 45.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 91 / 45

On to step 2:
45 goes into 91 2 times with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 90 away from 91, we end up with 1.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 1 and repeat the process: 18 / 45

Moving on to step 3:
The number 45 fits into 18 0 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20.0
If we subtract 0 from 18, we get 18.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 186 / 45

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 186 by 45, we get 4 and a remainder of 6.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 204.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 180 from 186.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 6 and continue: 65 / 45

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 65 by 45, we get 1 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2041.0
If we subtract 45 from 65, we get 20.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 209 / 45

Step 6:
45 goes into 209 4 times with a remainder of 29.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 20414.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 180 from 209.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
290 divided by 45 is 6 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 20414.6
Deduct 270 from 290 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
45 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 20414.64
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 180 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
200 divided by 45 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 20414.644
If we take 180 away from 200, we end up 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.

Our division results in 20414.644 with a remaining 0.002.
