We're dividing 253877 by 46 
Our goal is to divide 253877 by 46.

Moving on to step 1:
46 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 0 from 2.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 2, then carry on: 25 / 46

On to step 2:
46 goes into 25 0 times with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 25, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 253 / 46

On to step 3:
If we divide 253 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 23.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 230 from 253.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 23, then repeat: 238 / 46

Step 4:
46 can be fit into 238 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 8.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 230 from 238, we get 8.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 8, then repeat: 87 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
87 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 41.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 551.0
If we subtract 46 from 87, we get 41.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 41, then repeat: 417 / 46

Step 6:
417 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5519.0
Subtract 414 from 417 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
46 can be fit into 30 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 30.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5519.0
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 0 from 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5519.06
Subtracting 276 from 300 leaves us with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
46 goes into 240 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 5519.065
The remainder is 10 after subtracting 230 from 240.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
100 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 5519.0652
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.

Advancing to step 11:
46 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5519.06521
If we subtract 46 from 80, we 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.

Moving on to step 12:
If we divide 340 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5519.065217
If we take 322 away from 340, we end up 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.

On to step 13:
46 can be fit into 180 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5519.0652173
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.

Step 14:
420 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 5519.06521739
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.

In conclusion, the division gives 5519.06521739 with a balance of 6e-09.
