45879278 ÷ 427 
Our goal is to divide 45879278 by 427.

Going ahead to step 1:
427 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 4 and we're left with 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 427

Going ahead to step 2:
If we divide 45 by 427, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 0 from 45.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 45, then repeat: 458 / 427

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 458 by 427, we get 1 and a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 427 from 458, we get 31.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 317 / 427

Going ahead to step 4:
427 goes into 317 0 times with a remainder of 317.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
The remainder is 317 after subtracting 0 from 317.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 317, then carry on: 3179 / 427

Moving on to step 5:
427 can be fit into 3179 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 190.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 2989 from 3179 and we're left with 190.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 190, then repeat: 1902 / 427

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 1902 by 427, we get 4 and a remainder of 194.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 1074.0
If we take 1708 away from 1902, we end up with 194.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 194, then repeat: 1947 / 427

Moving on to step 7:
427 goes into 1947 4 times with a remainder of 239.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10744.0
If we take 1708 away from 1947, we end up with 239.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 239 and repeat the process: 2398 / 427

Advancing to step 8:
427 can be fit into 2398 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 263.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107445.0
Deduct 2135 from 2398 and we're left with 263.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2630, and continue the process.

Step 9:
427 can be fit into 2630 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 68.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107445.6
Subtract 2562 from 2630 to get 68.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 680, and continue the process.

Step 10:
427 goes into 680 1 times with a remainder of 253.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107445.61
Subtracting 427 from 680 leaves us with 253.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2530, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
When dividing 2530 by 427, we get 5 with a remainder of 395.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 107445.615
The remainder is 395 after subtracting 2135 from 2530.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3950, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 3950 by 427, we get 9 and a remainder of 107.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 107445.6159
If we subtract 3843 from 3950, we get 107.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1070, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
427 can be fit into 1070 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 216.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 107445.61592
Deduct 854 from 1070 and we're left with 216.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2160, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 2160 by 427, we get 5 and a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 107445.615925
Subtracting 2135 from 2160 leaves us with 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
427 goes into 250 0 times with a remainder of 250.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 107445.615925
The remainder is 250 after subtracting 0 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
If we divide 2500 by 427, we get 5 and a remainder of 365.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 107445.61592505
Subtract 2135 from 2500 to get 365.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 107445.61592505 with a balance of 3.65e-07.
