255812 divided by 46 
We want to figure out the number of times 255812 can be divided by 46.

Step 1:
46 goes into 2 0 times with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 2 and continue: 25 / 46

On to step 2:
25 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 25, we get 25.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 25 and repeat the process: 255 / 46

Step 3:
255 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 25.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 230 away from 255, we end up with 25.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 258 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
When dividing 258 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 28.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 55.0
If we subtract 230 from 258, we get 28.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 28 and repeat the process: 281 / 46

Step 5:
When dividing 281 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 5.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 556.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 276 from 281.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 52 / 46

Advancing to step 6:
46 goes into 52 1 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5561.0
Subtracting 46 from 52 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.

Going ahead to step 7:
46 can be fit into 60 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5561.1
Deduct 46 from 60 and we're left 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 8:
46 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5561.13
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 138 from 140.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
20 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5561.13
Subtracting 0 from 20 leaves us with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
46 goes into 200 4 times with a remainder of 16.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5561.1304
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.

On to step 11:
160 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5561.13043
The remainder is 22 after subtracting 138 from 160.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
220 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 5561.130434
If we subtract 184 from 220, we get 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5561.1304347
Deduct 322 from 360 and we're left with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5561.13043478
Subtract 368 from 380 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

The quotient of the division is 5561.13043478, and the remainder is 1.2e-08.
