872237 ÷ 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 872237 can be divided by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 8 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 8.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 8 to get 8.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 87 / 46

Step 2:
If we divide 87 by 46, we get 1 and a remainder of 41.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
The remainder is 41 after subtracting 46 from 87.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 41, then carry on: 412 / 46

Step 3:
46 goes into 412 8 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18.0
Subtract 368 from 412 to get 44.
Fetch the next digit (2) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 442 / 46

Advancing to step 4:
442 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 28.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 189.0
Deduct 414 from 442 and we're left with 28.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 28 and continue: 283 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 283 6 times, leaving a remainder of 7.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1896.0
If we subtract 276 from 283, we get 7.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 7 and repeat the process: 77 / 46

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 77 by 46, we get 1 with a remainder of 31.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18961.0
Subtract 46 from 77 to get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
46 can be fit into 310 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18961.6
Subtract 276 from 310 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 340 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18961.67
Deduct 322 from 340 and we're left with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
180 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 18961.673
Subtracting 138 from 180 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
If we divide 420 by 46, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18961.6739
Subtracting 414 from 420 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 46 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 18961.67391
Subtracting 46 from 60 leaves us with 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 140 3 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 18961.673913
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
When dividing 20 by 46, we get 0 with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 18961.673913
Subtract 0 from 20 to get 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 46 fits into 200 4 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 18961.67391304
Deduct 184 from 200 and we're left with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 18961.67391304 and a remainder of 1.6e-08.
