We look at the division of 228523 by 46 
Our goal is to divide 228523 by 46.

Going ahead to step 1:
The number 46 fits into 2 0 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 22 / 46

On to step 2:
46 goes into 22 0 times with a remainder of 22.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 22 leaves us with 22.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 228 / 46

On to step 3:
46 goes into 228 4 times with a remainder of 44.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 184 from 228.
Append the next digit (5) from the dividend to 44 and continue with: 445 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
46 can be fit into 445 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 49.0
Deduct 414 from 445 and we're left with 31.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 312 / 46

Let's proceed to step 5:
When dividing 312 by 46, we get 6 with a remainder of 36.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 496.0
If we take 276 away from 312, we end up with 36.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 36 and continue: 363 / 46

Step 6:
The number 46 fits into 363 7 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4967.0
Subtract 322 from 363 to get 41.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 410, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
When dividing 410 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 42.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 4967.8
Subtracting 368 from 410 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 8:
When dividing 420 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 4967.89
If we take 414 away from 420, we end up 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.

On to step 9:
60 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 4967.891
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 46 from 60.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
46 can be fit into 140 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4967.8913
Subtracting 138 from 140 leaves us 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.

Let's proceed to step 11:
46 goes into 20 0 times with a remainder of 20.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 4967.8913
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left 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.

Advancing to step 12:
46 can be fit into 200 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 4967.891304
Subtract 184 from 200 to get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
160 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 22.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4967.8913043
Subtract 138 from 160 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
220 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 36.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 4967.89130434
Deduct 184 from 220 and we're left with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Our division results in 4967.89130434 with a remaining 3.6e-08.
