We want to divide 46579040 by 989.

Step 1:
989 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 4 and continue: 46 / 989

On to step 2:
989 goes into 46 0 times with a remainder of 46.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 46, we end up with 46.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 46, then carry on: 465 / 989

On to step 3:
989 goes into 465 0 times with a remainder of 465.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 465 to get 465.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 465 and repeat the process: 4657 / 989

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 4657 by 989, we get 4 with a remainder of 701.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
Deduct 3956 from 4657 and we're left with 701.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 701 and continue: 7019 / 989

Step 5:
The number 989 fits into 7019 7 times, leaving a remainder of 96.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 47.0
The remainder is 96 after subtracting 6923 from 7019.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 96 and continue: 960 / 989

Moving on to step 6:
960 divided by 989 is 0 with a remainder of 960.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 470.0
If we subtract 0 from 960, we get 960.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 960, then carry on: 9604 / 989

On to step 7:
When dividing 9604 by 989, we get 9 with a remainder of 703.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4709.0
Deduct 8901 from 9604 and we're left with 703.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 703 and continue: 7030 / 989

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 989 fits into 7030 7 times, leaving a remainder of 107.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47097.0
Subtract 6923 from 7030 to get 107.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1070, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
989 goes into 1070 1 times with a remainder of 81.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 47097.1
The remainder is 81 after subtracting 989 from 1070.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 810, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
989 goes into 810 0 times with a remainder of 810.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 47097.1
Subtract 0 from 810 to get 810.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 989 fits into 8100 8 times, leaving a remainder of 188.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47097.108
If we take 7912 away from 8100, we end up with 188.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1880, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 989 fits into 1880 1 times, leaving a remainder of 891.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47097.1081
The remainder is 891 after subtracting 989 from 1880.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8910, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
989 can be fit into 8910 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47097.10819
Deduct 8901 from 8910 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 90 by 989, we get 0 and a remainder of 90.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47097.10819
The remainder is 90 after subtracting 0 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 900, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 15:
The number 989 fits into 900 0 times, leaving a remainder of 900.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47097.10819
Subtracting 0 from 900 leaves us with 900.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 9000, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 47097.10819 with a balance of 9e-06.
