864457 ÷ 46 
Our goal is to divide 864457 by 46.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 8, we end up with 8.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 8, then carry on: 86 / 46

Step 2:
46 can be fit into 86 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 46 from 86 and we're left with 40.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 40, then repeat: 404 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
404 divided by 46 is 8 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtracting 368 from 404 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 364 / 46

Step 4:
When dividing 364 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 42.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 187.0
If we take 322 away from 364, we end up with 42.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 42, then carry on: 425 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
46 goes into 425 9 times with a remainder of 11.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 1879.0
If we take 414 away from 425, we end up with 11.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 117 / 46

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 117 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 25.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 18792.0
Subtract 92 from 117 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
46 can be fit into 250 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 18792.5
Deduct 230 from 250 and we're left with 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 8:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18792.54
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
46 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18792.543
Subtract 138 from 160 to 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.

On to step 10:
The number 46 fits into 220 4 times, leaving a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 18792.5434
If we take 184 away from 220, we end up 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18792.54347
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
When dividing 380 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18792.543478
If we subtract 368 from 380, we get 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 13:
When dividing 120 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18792.5434782
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.

On to step 14:
46 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 18792.54347826
Deduct 276 from 280 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final result is 18792.54347826 with a remainder of 4e-09.
