82985 ÷ 46 
Our goal is to divide 82985 by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 8 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 82 / 46

On to step 2:
82 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 46 away from 82, we end up with 36.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 369 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 369 8 times, leaving a remainder of 1.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 368 from 369.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 18 / 46

On to step 4:
18 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 180.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 185 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 185 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 1.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1804.0
Subtract 184 from 185 to get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 6:
46 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1804.0
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 0 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
46 can be fit into 100 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1804.02
Subtract 92 from 100 to get 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 8:
When dividing 80 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1804.021
If we subtract 46 from 80, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
When dividing 340 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1804.0217
Deduct 322 from 340 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
46 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1804.02173
If we take 138 away from 180, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 11:
420 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1804.021739
If we take 414 away from 420, we end up 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.

On to step 12:
If we divide 60 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 14.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1804.0217391
If we subtract 46 from 60, 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.

Moving on to step 13:
46 goes into 140 3 times with a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 1804.02173913
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 1804.02173913 and a remainder of 2e-09.
