Let's divide 409531 by 46
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 409531.

Moving on to step 1:
When dividing 4 by 46, we get 0 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.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 40 / 46

On to step 2:
46 can be fit into 40 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 40 and continue: 409 / 46

Moving on to step 3:
The number 46 fits into 409 8 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 368 from 409.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 415 / 46

On to step 4:
46 goes into 415 9 times with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 89.0
Subtract 414 from 415 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 13 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 13 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 13.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 890.0
If we subtract 0 from 13, we get 13.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 13 and continue with: 131 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
46 goes into 131 2 times with a remainder of 39.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 8902.0
Deduct 92 from 131 and we're left with 39.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 390, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
390 divided by 46 is 8 with a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 8902.8
If we subtract 368 from 390, we 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 8:
When dividing 220 by 46, we get 4 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 8902.84
If we subtract 184 from 220, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8902.847
If we subtract 322 from 360, we get 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 10:
When dividing 380 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 8902.8478
If we subtract 368 from 380, we get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
46 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 28.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 8902.84782
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.

Step 12:
46 can be fit into 280 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8902.847826
Deduct 276 from 280 and we're left 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.

Step 13:
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: 8902.847826
If we subtract 0 from 40, we get 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 8902.84782608
Subtracting 368 from 400 leaves us 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.

After the division, we end up with 8902.84782608 and a remainder of 3.2e-08.
