We look at the division of 559721 by 46 
Our goal is to divide 559721 by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
46 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 5 to get 5.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 55 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
46 can be fit into 55 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 46 from 55, we get 9.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 9 and continue with: 99 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 99 2 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12.0
If we subtract 92 from 99, we get 7.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 77 / 46

On to step 4:
46 can be fit into 77 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 121.0
If we subtract 46 from 77, we get 31.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 31, then carry on: 312 / 46

Advancing to step 5:
If we divide 312 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 1216.0
Subtract 276 from 312 to get 36.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 36 and continue with: 361 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
If we divide 361 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 39.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12167.0
The remainder is 39 after subtracting 322 from 361.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Step 7:
390 divided by 46 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12167.8
Subtracting 368 from 390 leaves us with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
46 can be fit into 220 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12167.84
Subtract 184 from 220 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.

On to step 9:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12167.847
Subtract 322 from 360 to get 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 10:
When dividing 380 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12167.8478
Subtracting 368 from 380 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
46 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 28.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12167.84782
Subtracting 92 from 120 leaves us 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.

Step 12:
46 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12167.847826
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.

Let's proceed to step 13:
When dividing 40 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12167.847826
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 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 14:
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: 12167.84782608
Deduct 368 from 400 and we're left 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.

After the division, we end up with 12167.84782608 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
