Let's divide 557412 by 46
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 557412.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 5, we get 5.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 5, then repeat: 55 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 55 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 46 from 55.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 97 / 46

Step 3:
When dividing 97 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 5.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12.0
Deduct 92 from 97 and we're left with 5.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 54 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
The number 46 fits into 54 1 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 121.0
If we take 46 away from 54, we end up with 8.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 81 / 46

Step 5:
46 goes into 81 1 times with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1211.0
Deduct 46 from 81 and we're left with 35.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 352 / 46

Going ahead to step 6:
352 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12117.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 322 from 352.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
300 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 12117.6
If we take 276 away from 300, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
46 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12117.65
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 230 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 46 fits into 100 2 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 12117.652
If we subtract 92 from 100, we get 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 12117.6521
If we subtract 46 from 80, we get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
46 can be fit into 340 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12117.65217
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.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 180 3 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12117.652173
Subtracting 138 from 180 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 13:
46 can be fit into 420 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 12117.6521739
Deduct 414 from 420 and we're left with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12117.65217391
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12117.65217391 with a balance of 1.4e-08.
