Let's divide 794860 by 46
Our goal is to divide 794860 by 46.

On to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 7 0 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 79 / 46

Let's proceed to step 2:
79 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 46 from 79.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 33 and repeat the process: 334 / 46

Step 3:
When dividing 334 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 12.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 322 from 334.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 46

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 128 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 172.0
The remainder is 36 after subtracting 92 from 128.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 366 / 46

Step 5:
366 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 44.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1727.0
Deduct 322 from 366 and we're left with 44.
Fetch the next digit (0) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 440 / 46

Step 6:
440 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17279.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 414 from 440.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
260 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17279.5
If we take 230 away from 260, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17279.56
Subtract 276 from 300 to get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
46 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17279.565
Subtracting 230 from 240 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 100 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17279.5652
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
80 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 17279.56521
If we take 46 away from 80, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
46 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17279.565217
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 322 from 340.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 180 by 46, we get 3 and a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17279.5652173
If we subtract 138 from 180, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
46 can be fit into 420 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17279.56521739
If we subtract 414 from 420, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final result is 17279.56521739 with a remainder of 6e-09.
