Let's divide 496288 by 46
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 496288.

Going ahead to step 1:
46 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 49 / 46

Step 2:
If we divide 49 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 3 after subtracting 46 from 49.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 3 and continue: 36 / 46

On to step 3:
46 can be fit into 36 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 36.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtracting 0 from 36 leaves us with 36.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 36, then repeat: 362 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 can be fit into 362 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 107.0
Deduct 322 from 362 and we're left with 40.
Take the next digit (8) from the dividend and append it to 40, then repeat: 408 / 46

Moving on to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 408 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1078.0
If we take 368 away from 408, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 46

On to step 6:
The number 46 fits into 408 8 times, leaving a remainder of 40.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10788.0
If we subtract 368 from 408, 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.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 400 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 32.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10788.8
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.

Let's proceed to step 8:
320 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10788.86
If we take 276 away from 320, we end up 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.

Step 9:
The number 46 fits into 440 9 times, leaving a remainder of 26.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10788.869
If we subtract 414 from 440, we get 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 10:
260 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10788.8695
If we take 230 away from 260, we end up with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 300 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10788.86956
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 276 from 300.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
When dividing 240 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10788.869565
Deduct 230 from 240 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10788.8695652
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 46 fits into 80 1 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10788.86956521
If we take 46 away from 80, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 10788.86956521 and a remainder of 3.4e-08.
