We look at the division of 16957 by 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 16957 can be divided by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
1 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 1 leaves us with 1.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 16 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 16 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 16 to get 16.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 16, then repeat: 169 / 46

On to step 3:
46 goes into 169 3 times with a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
If we take 138 away from 169, we end up with 31.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 31 and continue: 315 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
46 goes into 315 6 times with a remainder of 39.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36.0
Subtract 276 from 315 to get 39.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 39, then repeat: 397 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 397 8 times, leaving a remainder of 29.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 368.0
If we take 368 away from 397, we end up with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 6:
46 can be fit into 290 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 368.6
If we subtract 276 from 290, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 2.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 368.63
Subtract 138 from 140 to get 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
46 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 368.63
If we subtract 0 from 20, we get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 9:
46 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 368.6304
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 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 10:
The number 46 fits into 160 3 times, leaving a remainder of 22.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 368.63043
If we subtract 138 from 160, we 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.

Advancing to step 11:
220 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 368.630434
Deduct 184 from 220 and we're left with 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 12:
46 can be fit into 360 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 368.6304347
Deduct 322 from 360 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 46 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 368.63043478
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 368 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 368.63043478, with a leftover of 1.2e-08.
