401487 divided by 46 
Our goal is to divide 401487 by 46.

Advancing to step 1:
46 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 40 / 46

Going ahead to step 2:
46 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 40 to get 40.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 401 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
46 can be fit into 401 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8.0
Subtract 368 from 401 to get 33.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 33 and continue with: 334 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
46 can be fit into 334 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 87.0
If we subtract 322 from 334, we get 12.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 46

On to step 5:
128 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 36.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 872.0
Subtract 92 from 128 to get 36.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 36, then repeat: 367 / 46

On to step 6:
46 can be fit into 367 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8727.0
If we subtract 322 from 367, we get 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 can be fit into 450 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8727.9
Subtract 414 from 450 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 8:
The number 46 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8727.97
Subtracting 322 from 360 leaves us with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
46 can be fit into 380 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8727.978
If we subtract 368 from 380, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
If we divide 120 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 8727.9782
If we take 92 away from 120, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 280 6 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8727.97826
Subtract 276 from 280 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.

Advancing to step 12:
46 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 8727.97826
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
46 goes into 400 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8727.9782608
If we take 368 away from 400, we end up 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 14:
If we divide 320 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 8727.97826086
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.

The final result is 8727.97826086 with a remainder of 4.4e-08.
