We're dividing 853968 by 46 
We're looking to find how many times 46 goes into 853968.

Step 1:
46 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 85 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
46 goes into 85 1 times with a remainder of 39.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 85, we get 39.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 39 and continue: 393 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 393 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 25.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 25 after subtracting 368 from 393.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 259 / 46

On to step 4:
259 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 29.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 185.0
The remainder is 29 after subtracting 230 from 259.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 29, then repeat: 296 / 46

On to step 5:
When dividing 296 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1856.0
If we take 276 away from 296, we end up with 20.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 20, then repeat: 208 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 goes into 208 4 times with a remainder of 24.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18564.0
If we take 184 away from 208, 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 240 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18564.5
If we take 230 away from 240, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
46 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18564.52
Subtracting 92 from 100 leaves us with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
46 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18564.521
Subtract 46 from 80 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 340 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18564.5217
If we take 322 away from 340, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 180 by 46, we get 3 with a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18564.52173
The remainder is 42 after subtracting 138 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
46 goes into 420 9 times with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 18564.521739
If we subtract 414 from 420, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
46 goes into 60 1 times with a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18564.5217391
Subtract 46 from 60 to get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18564.52173913
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 18564.52173913 with a balance of 2e-09.
