846871 ÷ 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 846871 can be divided by 46.

Advancing to step 1:
46 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 8 and continue with: 84 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 84 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 38.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 84 to get 38.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 38, then repeat: 386 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
When dividing 386 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Deduct 368 from 386 and we're left with 18.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 18, then repeat: 188 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 188 by 46, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 184.0
If we take 184 away from 188, we end up with 4.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 47 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
46 can be fit into 47 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1841.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 46 from 47.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 1 and continue: 11 / 46

Advancing to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 11 0 times, leaving a remainder of 11.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18410.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 0 from 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
46 goes into 110 2 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18410.2
Subtract 92 from 110 to get 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 8:
46 goes into 180 3 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18410.23
Subtract 138 from 180 to get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
If we divide 420 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18410.239
Deduct 414 from 420 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 60 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18410.2391
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18410.23913
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
46 can be fit into 20 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18410.23913
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us 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.

On to step 13:
When dividing 200 by 46, we get 4 with a remainder of 16.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18410.2391304
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
160 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18410.23913043
Subtract 138 from 160 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18410.23913043 and a remainder of 2.2e-08.
