Let's divide 45189846 by 972
We want to divide 45189846 by 972.

Advancing to step 1:
972 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (5) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 45 / 972

Advancing to step 2:
972 can be fit into 45 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 45 to get 45.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 45 and continue: 451 / 972

Advancing to step 3:
972 goes into 451 0 times with a remainder of 451.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 451 leaves us with 451.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 451, then repeat: 4518 / 972

Moving on to step 4:
972 can be fit into 4518 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 630.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 4.0
If we take 3888 away from 4518, we end up with 630.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 630, then carry on: 6309 / 972

Moving on to step 5:
6309 divided by 972 is 6 with a remainder of 477.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46.0
Subtract 5832 from 6309 to get 477.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 477, then repeat: 4778 / 972

Let's proceed to step 6:
972 can be fit into 4778 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 890.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 464.0
Subtract 3888 from 4778 to get 890.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 890 and continue: 8904 / 972

Going ahead to step 7:
972 can be fit into 8904 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 156.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4649.0
Subtracting 8748 from 8904 leaves us with 156.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 156, then repeat: 1566 / 972

Moving on to step 8:
972 can be fit into 1566 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 594.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 46491.0
Deduct 972 from 1566 and we're left with 594.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5940, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
972 goes into 5940 6 times with a remainder of 108.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 46491.6
If we take 5832 away from 5940, we end up with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
972 goes into 1080 1 times with a remainder of 108.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46491.61
Subtracting 972 from 1080 leaves us with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
972 can be fit into 1080 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 108.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 46491.611
Subtracting 972 from 1080 leaves us with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 46491.611, with a leftover of 0.0108.
