Let's divide 987665 by 46
We want to divide 987665 by 46.

Advancing to step 1:
46 goes into 9 0 times with a remainder of 9.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 9 and we're left with 9.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 9, then repeat: 98 / 46

Moving on to step 2:
When dividing 98 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 6.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 92 from 98 and we're left with 6.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 6 and repeat the process: 67 / 46

Advancing to step 3:
67 divided by 46 is 1 with a remainder of 21.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 46 from 67.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 21, then repeat: 216 / 46

Moving on to step 4:
If we divide 216 by 46, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 214.0
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 184 from 216.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 32 and continue with: 326 / 46

Step 5:
46 can be fit into 326 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2147.0
Subtract 322 from 326 to get 4.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 45 / 46

Let's proceed to step 6:
If we divide 45 by 46, we get 0 and a remainder of 45.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21470.0
Deduct 0 from 45 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
When dividing 450 by 46, we get 9 with a remainder of 36.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21470.9
Subtract 414 from 450 to get 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 8:
If we divide 360 by 46, we get 7 and a remainder of 38.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 21470.97
Subtract 322 from 360 to 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.

On to step 9:
When dividing 380 by 46, we get 8 with a remainder of 12.
Use 8 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21470.978
Subtract 368 from 380 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
When dividing 120 by 46, we get 2 with a remainder of 28.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 21470.9782
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 92 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Step 11:
46 goes into 280 6 times with a remainder of 4.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21470.97826
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.

Going ahead to step 12:
40 divided by 46 is 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 21470.97826
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 46 fits into 400 8 times, leaving a remainder of 32.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 21470.9782608
The remainder is 32 after subtracting 368 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 46 fits into 320 6 times, leaving a remainder of 44.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 21470.97826086
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 276 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 21470.97826086 and a remainder of 4.4e-08.
