Let's divide 179812 by 46
Our goal is to divide 179812 by 46.

Let's proceed to step 1:
46 goes into 1 0 times with a remainder of 1.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 17 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
17 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 17.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 17 leaves us with 17.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 17 and continue with: 179 / 46

On to step 3:
46 goes into 179 3 times with a remainder of 41.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 138 from 179 to get 41.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 41 and repeat the process: 418 / 46

Step 4:
418 divided by 46 is 9 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 39.0
If we subtract 414 from 418, we get 4.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 41 / 46

Step 5:
The number 46 fits into 41 0 times, leaving a remainder of 41.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 390.0
If we subtract 0 from 41, we get 41.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 41, then repeat: 412 / 46

Step 6:
If we divide 412 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 44.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3908.0
Subtracting 368 from 412 leaves us with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
46 can be fit into 440 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 26.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3908.9
If we subtract 414 from 440, we get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
46 goes into 260 5 times with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3908.95
Subtract 230 from 260 to get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 9:
If we divide 300 by 46, we get 6 and a remainder of 24.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 3908.956
If we take 276 away from 300, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
46 can be fit into 240 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3908.9565
If we subtract 230 from 240, we get 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 11:
When dividing 100 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3908.95652
Deduct 92 from 100 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 12:
46 goes into 80 1 times with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 3908.956521
The remainder is 34 after subtracting 46 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
46 goes into 340 7 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 3908.9565217
If we subtract 322 from 340, 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.

On to step 14:
When dividing 180 by 46, we get 3 with a remainder of 42.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3908.95652173
If we take 138 away from 180, we end up 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.

The final outcome is 3908.95652173, with a leftover of 4.2e-08.
