We divide 242902 by 46
We're looking to find how many times 46 goes into 242902.

Moving on to step 1:
2 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 2, we get 2.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
46 can be fit into 24 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 24.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 24, we end up with 24.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 24, then repeat: 242 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
242 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 230 from 242.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 12, then carry on: 129 / 46

Let's proceed to step 4:
46 can be fit into 129 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 37.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 52.0
Deduct 92 from 129 and we're left with 37.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 370 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 370 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 2.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 528.0
If we take 368 away from 370, we end up with 2.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 22 / 46

On to step 6:
22 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5280.0
Deduct 0 from 22 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 220 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 36.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5280.4
Subtracting 184 from 220 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 8:
The number 46 fits into 360 7 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5280.47
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 322 from 360.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5280.478
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.

On to step 10:
120 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5280.4782
Deduct 92 from 120 and we're left 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 11:
46 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5280.47826
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.

On to step 12:
When dividing 40 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5280.47826
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
400 divided by 46 is 8 with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5280.4782608
Subtracting 368 from 400 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
46 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5280.47826086
Deduct 276 from 320 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5280.47826086, and the remainder is 4.4e-08.
