214974 divided by 45 
We want to divide 214974 by 45.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 2, then repeat: 21 / 45

Moving on to step 2:
If we divide 21 by 45, we get 0 and a remainder of 21.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 21 leaves us with 21.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 21 and continue: 214 / 45

Step 3:
45 goes into 214 4 times with a remainder of 34.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 180 away from 214, we end up with 34.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 34, then repeat: 349 / 45

Moving on to step 4:
349 divided by 45 is 7 with a remainder of 34.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47.0
If we take 315 away from 349, we end up with 34.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 34, then carry on: 347 / 45

Moving on to step 5:
45 can be fit into 347 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 477.0
Subtracting 315 from 347 leaves us with 32.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 32 and repeat the process: 324 / 45

Going ahead to step 6:
The number 45 fits into 324 7 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4777.0
If we subtract 315 from 324, we get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
When dividing 90 by 45, we get 2 with a remainder of 0.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4777.2
If we take 90 away from 90, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 0 by 45, we get 0 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4777.2
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
0 divided by 45 is 0 with a remainder of 0.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4777.2
Subtract 0 from 0 to get 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 4777.2 and a remainder of 0.0.
