500138 ÷ 46 
Let's see how many times 46 fits into 500138.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 5 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 5.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 0 from 5.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 5 and repeat the process: 50 / 46

Advancing to step 2:
46 can be fit into 50 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtracting 46 from 50 leaves us with 4.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 4 and repeat the process: 40 / 46

Let's proceed to step 3:
46 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 40 and repeat the process: 401 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 401 by 46, we get 8 and a remainder of 33.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 108.0
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 368 from 401.
Fetch the next digit (3) from the dividend, attach it to 33 and continue: 333 / 46

Going ahead to step 5:
If we divide 333 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 11.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1087.0
Subtracting 322 from 333 leaves us with 11.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 11 and continue with: 118 / 46

Step 6:
118 divided by 46 is 2 with a remainder of 26.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10872.0
Deduct 92 from 118 and we're left with 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 7:
260 divided by 46 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10872.5
Deduct 230 from 260 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
300 divided by 46 is 6 with a remainder of 24.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10872.56
If we subtract 276 from 300, we get 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
When dividing 240 by 46, we get 5 with a remainder of 10.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10872.565
Subtracting 230 from 240 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
If we divide 100 by 46, we get 2 and a remainder of 8.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10872.5652
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up 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.

On to step 11:
46 can be fit into 80 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 10872.56521
If we take 46 away from 80, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
340 divided by 46 is 7 with a remainder of 18.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10872.565217
Subtracting 322 from 340 leaves us with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
180 divided by 46 is 3 with a remainder of 42.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10872.5652173
Subtracting 138 from 180 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.

On to step 14:
The number 46 fits into 420 9 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10872.56521739
Subtracting 414 from 420 leaves us 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.

The final outcome is 10872.56521739, with a leftover of 6e-09.
