We look at the division of 761049 by 46 
We want to divide 761049 by 46.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 7 to get 7.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 7, then carry on: 76 / 46

Step 2:
46 goes into 76 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 46 from 76.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 30 and continue: 301 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
If we divide 301 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 25.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
Subtract 276 from 301 to get 25.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 25, then repeat: 250 / 46

Step 4:
If we divide 250 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 165.0
Deduct 230 from 250 and we're left with 20.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 20, then carry on: 204 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
204 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 20.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1654.0
Subtract 184 from 204 to get 20.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 20 and repeat the process: 209 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 209 4 times, leaving a remainder of 25.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16544.0
If we take 184 away from 209, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 46 fits into 250 5 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16544.5
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 230 from 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
If we divide 200 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16544.54
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 9:
46 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16544.543
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:
46 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16544.5434
Subtract 184 from 220 to get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
360 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 38.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16544.54347
Subtracting 322 from 360 leaves us 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.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 16544.543478
Subtracting 368 from 380 leaves us 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 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: 16544.5434782
If we take 92 away from 120, we end up 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.

Advancing to step 14:
46 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16544.54347826
Subtracting 276 from 280 leaves us 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 16544.54347826 with a remainder of 4e-09.
