Let's divide 46863901 by 83
We want to divide 46863901 by 83.

Let's proceed to step 1:
4 divided by 83 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 46 / 83

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 46 by 83, we get 0 with a remainder of 46.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 46, we get 46.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 46 and repeat the process: 468 / 83

Step 3:
468 divided by 83 is 5 with a remainder of 53.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 415 from 468 to get 53.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 53 and repeat the process: 536 / 83

On to step 4:
If we divide 536 by 83, we get 6 and a remainder of 38.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 56.0
Subtracting 498 from 536 leaves us with 38.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 38 and continue: 383 / 83

Step 5:
83 goes into 383 4 times with a remainder of 51.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 564.0
If we subtract 332 from 383, we get 51.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 51, then repeat: 519 / 83

Moving on to step 6:
83 goes into 519 6 times with a remainder of 21.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5646.0
Subtract 498 from 519 to get 21.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 21, then carry on: 210 / 83

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 83 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56462.0
Subtract 166 from 210 to get 44.
Fetch the next digit (1) from the dividend, attach it to 44 and continue: 441 / 83

Going ahead to step 8:
If we divide 441 by 83, we get 5 and a remainder of 26.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 564625.0
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 415 from 441.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
83 goes into 260 3 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 564625.3
Deduct 249 from 260 and we're left with 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
110 divided by 83 is 1 with a remainder of 27.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 564625.31
If we subtract 83 from 110, we get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
The number 83 fits into 270 3 times, leaving a remainder of 21.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 564625.313
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 249 from 270.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 83 fits into 210 2 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 564625.3132
Subtract 166 from 210 to get 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
440 divided by 83 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 564625.31325
Subtract 415 from 440 to get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 250 by 83, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 564625.313253
If we take 249 away from 250, we end up with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 15:
83 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 564625.313253
Subtract 0 from 10 to get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 16:
When dividing 100 by 83, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 564625.31325301
If we take 83 away from 100, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 564625.31325301, with a leftover of 1.7e-08.
