We're dividing 781483 by 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 781483 can be divided by 46.

Step 1:
If we divide 7 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 7.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 7 and we're left with 7.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 7 and continue with: 78 / 46

On to step 2:
If we divide 78 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 32.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 78 to get 32.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 321 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
321 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 45.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16.0
If we subtract 276 from 321, we get 45.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 45, then repeat: 454 / 46

On to step 4:
46 goes into 454 9 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 169.0
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 414 from 454.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 40 and continue with: 408 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
46 can be fit into 408 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1698.0
If we take 368 away from 408, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (3) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 403 / 46

Step 6:
When dividing 403 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 35.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16988.0
Subtracting 368 from 403 leaves us with 35.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 350, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
46 goes into 350 7 times with a remainder of 28.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16988.7
Deduct 322 from 350 and we're left 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 8:
46 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 16988.76
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.

On to step 9:
46 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16988.76
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
46 goes into 400 8 times with a remainder of 32.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16988.7608
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 368 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
46 can be fit into 320 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 44.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 16988.76086
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.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 440 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 26.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16988.760869
Deduct 414 from 440 and we're left with 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
46 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 30.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 16988.7608695
Subtract 230 from 260 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
300 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 16988.76086956
Deduct 276 from 300 and we're left 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.

The final outcome is 16988.76086956, with a leftover of 2.4e-08.
