44978694 ÷ 15 
We want to divide 44978694 by 15.

Advancing to step 1:
15 goes into 4 0 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 4, we end up with 4.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 44 / 15

On to step 2:
If we divide 44 by 15, we get 2 and a remainder of 14.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2.0
If we take 30 away from 44, we end up with 14.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 149 / 15

Let's proceed to step 3:
When dividing 149 by 15, we get 9 with a remainder of 14.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 29.0
If we subtract 135 from 149, we get 14.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 14, then carry on: 147 / 15

Moving on to step 4:
15 can be fit into 147 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 299.0
Subtract 135 from 147 to get 12.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 12 and continue: 128 / 15

Moving on to step 5:
The number 15 fits into 128 8 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2998.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 120 from 128.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 8 and repeat the process: 86 / 15

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 86 by 15, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 29985.0
The remainder is 11 after subtracting 75 from 86.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 11, then repeat: 119 / 15

On to step 7:
When dividing 119 by 15, we get 7 with a remainder of 14.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 299857.0
Deduct 105 from 119 and we're left with 14.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 144 / 15

Step 8:
The number 15 fits into 144 9 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2998579.0
Subtract 135 from 144 to get 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 9:
The number 15 fits into 90 6 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2998579.6
If we take 90 away from 90, we end up with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
15 can be fit into 0 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 0.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2998579.6
Deduct 0 from 0 and we're left with 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

Step 11:
The number 15 fits into 0 0 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2998579.6
The remainder is 0 after subtracting 0 from 0.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 0, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 2998579.6, with a leftover of 0.0.
