Let's divide 247723 by 46
We want to figure out the number of times 247723 can be divided by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
2 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 2, we end up with 2.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 24 / 46

Step 2:
46 goes into 24 0 times with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 24 and continue: 247 / 46

On to step 3:
When dividing 247 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 230 away from 247, we end up with 17.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 17 and continue: 177 / 46

Step 4:
46 can be fit into 177 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 39.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 53.0
Subtracting 138 from 177 leaves us with 39.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 39, then carry on: 392 / 46

Step 5:
The number 46 fits into 392 8 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 538.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 368 from 392.
Append the next digit (3) from the dividend to 24 and continue with: 243 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 can be fit into 243 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5385.0
If we subtract 230 from 243, we get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 130 2 times, leaving a remainder of 38.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5385.2
Deduct 92 from 130 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.

Advancing to step 8:
46 goes into 380 8 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 5385.28
Deduct 368 from 380 and we're left 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.

Step 9:
When dividing 120 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5385.282
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.

Moving on to step 10:
280 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5385.2826
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.

Step 11:
When dividing 40 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5385.2826
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 400 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5385.282608
Deduct 368 from 400 and we're left 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.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 320 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 44.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5385.2826086
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.

Let's proceed to step 14:
When dividing 440 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5385.28260869
Subtract 414 from 440 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

The final result is 5385.28260869 with a remainder of 2.6e-08.
