Let's divide 889987 by 46
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 889987.

Step 1:
The number 46 fits into 8 0 times, leaving a remainder of 8.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 8 and continue: 88 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
46 goes into 88 1 times with a remainder of 42.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 46 from 88 to get 42.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 42 and continue with: 429 / 46

On to step 3:
When dividing 429 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 15.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19.0
If we subtract 414 from 429, we get 15.
Take the next digit (9) from the dividend and append it to 15, then repeat: 159 / 46

Advancing to step 4:
46 goes into 159 3 times with a remainder of 21.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 193.0
If we take 138 away from 159, we end up with 21.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 218 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
The number 46 fits into 218 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1934.0
Subtracting 184 from 218 leaves us with 34.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 34, then repeat: 347 / 46

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 347 by 46, we get 7 with a remainder of 25.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 19347.0
If we subtract 322 from 347, we get 25.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 250, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 250 by 46, we get 5 and a remainder of 20.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19347.5
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 230 from 250.
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 8:
200 divided by 46 is 4 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19347.54
If we subtract 184 from 200, we 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.

Let's proceed to step 9:
46 can be fit into 160 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 22.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 19347.543
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.

Advancing to step 10:
46 goes into 220 4 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19347.5434
If we take 184 away from 220, we end up 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.

Moving on to step 11:
46 goes into 360 7 times with a remainder of 38.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 19347.54347
If we subtract 322 from 360, we get 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
The number 46 fits into 380 8 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19347.543478
Subtracting 368 from 380 leaves us with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
120 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 19347.5434782
If we take 92 away from 120, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 14:
46 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 19347.54347826
If we take 276 away from 280, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 19347.54347826, with a leftover of 4e-09.
