45739290 ÷ 172 
We're looking to find how many times 172 goes into 45739290.

On to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 172, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 45 / 172

Step 2:
172 can be fit into 45 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 45.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 45 after subtracting 0 from 45.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 45 and repeat the process: 457 / 172

Step 3:
457 divided by 172 is 2 with a remainder of 113.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 344 from 457 to get 113.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 113 and continue: 1133 / 172

On to step 4:
1133 divided by 172 is 6 with a remainder of 101.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 26.0
Subtract 1032 from 1133 to get 101.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 101, then repeat: 1019 / 172

Step 5:
172 can be fit into 1019 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 159.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 265.0
Subtract 860 from 1019 to get 159.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 159 and continue with: 1592 / 172

Moving on to step 6:
When dividing 1592 by 172, we get 9 with a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 2659.0
If we subtract 1548 from 1592, we get 44.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 44 and repeat the process: 449 / 172

Let's proceed to step 7:
172 can be fit into 449 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 105.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 26592.0
Deduct 344 from 449 and we're left with 105.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 105 and continue with: 1050 / 172

Moving on to step 8:
1050 divided by 172 is 6 with a remainder of 18.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 265926.0
If we subtract 1032 from 1050, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
180 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 8.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265926.1
Deduct 172 from 180 and we're left 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.

Step 10:
The number 172 fits into 80 0 times, leaving a remainder of 80.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 265926.1
If we take 0 away from 80, we end up with 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 800, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
172 goes into 800 4 times with a remainder of 112.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265926.104
The remainder is 112 after subtracting 688 from 800.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
172 goes into 1120 6 times with a remainder of 88.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 265926.1046
If we subtract 1032 from 1120, we get 88.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 880, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 880 by 172, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 265926.10465
Subtract 860 from 880 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.

Advancing to step 14:
172 goes into 200 1 times with a remainder of 28.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 265926.104651
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 172 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 15:
280 divided by 172 is 1 with a remainder of 108.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 265926.1046511
Deduct 172 from 280 and we're left with 108.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1080, and continue the process.

The final result is 265926.1046511 with a remainder of 1.08e-06.
